    Picture taken
    by John Greenleigh,
    the photographer
    who did more jobs for Apple than any other photographer in the world.
    Most of the iconic photographs we all know from Apple where shot by him.
    A masterpiece of inserting the Macintosh into the New York City Skyline,
    especially since PhotoShop didn't exist yet at that time!
    "John Greenleigh is a graduate of Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, and was a staff assistant to renowned color photographer Jay Maisel in New York.
    John opened John Greenleigh Studios (later Flipside Studios) in San Francisco in 1982, and soon began a 24 year run shooting for Apple.
    In 1996, Apple asked John to begin photographing every one of their products in 360 degrees using a new technology called Quicktime VR (QTVR).
    Since then, Flipside has gone on to produce 360° product demos for other leading companies including Nike, Specialized Bikes, T-Mobile, Microsoft, and LG."
