If you’ve already checked out our gallery of transparent desktop wallpapers, you know that this little trick is just full of awesome.

It's good clear: The trick shots


The “transparent screen” trick shot does just that, offering your eyes a delicious dose of unreality.
To celebrate such cunning creations, we’ve collected 10 of our favorite “see-through display” images into a gallery for your viewing pleasure.

Suspend disbelief and take a look through the photo gallery below. Link in the comments to any transparent screen shots you’ve created and, if you don’t know how — stayed tuned for a tutorial coming soon.





As an opener, Michelle's classic clear screen is a perfect example of the genre.





Wilson takes the concept outside for an impressive landscape version.





Joh gets bonus points for making two screens see-through!





The Finder window open on Eckert's MacBook adds an extra surreal dimension.





What's really impressive about Auklend's photo is that he matched the depth of field on his screen to the objects in the background.





Don't try this at home! Inglis brings the fun with a bath-themed screenshot.





Just imagine how fast Wilson had to have worked to match the clouds on and off the screen...





Wow. Just... wow!





What an obliging kitty.





Simple, but very effective, we like Byrne's view through his iMac.




Finally, to show that the transparent screen theme has evolved to the tablet, Sneekes has created a clear screen on his iPad, although we fear using it as a coaster for his Caipirinha is a bit much!
