Last year we posted a video which featured Ships and vehicles from Star Wars' Galatic Empire composited into San Francisco's Fleet Week. And earlier this Summer you might remember we posted another video from Mike Horn which showed what would really happen if Darth Vader encountered Star Trek's USS Enterprise (another video also set in San Francisco). I was happy to discover that Horn has created a series of Star Wars inspired San Francisco photographs (perfect for your computer desktop background). I'm currently based in the Bay Area and who isn't a fan of the wonderful picturesque views that almost every corner offers? And then you add the Galactic Empire into the mix... You can download all of the photos on Horn's Flickr account.

Mike Horn, currently the editor for Current TV is the crazy genius behind that video that all too lovingly depicts the Enterprise being vaporized by the Death Star. A clever mashup of two of sci-fi-doms most enduring franchises, that video is just one of two he created. It also appears that his videos were not sanctioned by the venerable George Lucas as we may have previously conjectured, “Lucas has not called me yet,” Horn says, “but if he did, I’d certainly express my gratitude toward him for making my childhood so magical. His cultural and technological legacy is enormous. My favorite Star Wars films are the original trilogy, and of the newer trilogy, I’d oddly have to say Phantom Menace was my favorite.” Here’s the other video he did, More on this story here, thanks to Wired.com.
