Photo Captures Glory of Store Opening

August 26, 2008

The Sydney (Australia) store grand opening back in June was a rare event: an early, enthusiastic crowd, a prominent sidewalk location with thousands of passersby, good weather and a wide, glass-fronted store. All of those elements combined to create one of the most social and crowd-gathering openings in Apple’s history. Now, you can experience some of that camaraderie through an extraordinary 360-degree panoramic photo taken by Peter Murphy. The photo depicts the employees pressed against the glass inside, the crammed sidewalk in front, and the crowd of curious across the street. Check the upper floors of the building across the street for even more gawkers who witnessed the grand opening.
