A little digital photography “assignment” for anybody interested:

Create a “transparent desktop” for your computer, so that the contents of the desktop wallpaper is whatever is behind your computer.

I didn’t use a flash, which explains the weird light and the fact that the desktops are brighter than the backgrounds. But when I tried with a flash, it reflected on the screens. Gonna try it in a brighter room.

very cool
