Shrine: Little IMacs Everywhere


Like a lot of U.S. immigrants, Brazilian-born photographer Caesar Lima started from scratch when he moved to Los Angeles in 1985.
Lima struggled for the first few years but now runs a thriving digital imaging studio, Caesar Photo Design, which he has turned into a shrine to the technology that helped make him successful: Apple computers.
Lima's studio is a mini Mac museum. He has 35 Macs -- from the Lisa to the Cube -- on display in the front foyer. He constructed the studio's reception desk from a stack of 15 working Mac Classics.
"My clients love it," he said. "Everyone in this industry -- art directors, designers -- use Macs. They come to the studio and spend half an hour looking at my collection. They say, 'Look at this, I had one of these.'"
