By Mike O'brien Updated: 07:50 GMT, 17 January 2012 The cracks in the parched earth are clearly visible, but for a few short weeks - every few years - this remote section of desert is transformed into a magic carpet of purple.
The wildflower Scorpion Weed takes over this corner of the Mojave Desert in southwestern Utah when the conditions are right. But its beauty is best appreciated in a photo- locals talk of the plants giving off a foul smell like human body odour. Wild and free: A carpet of purple Scorpion Weed in an isolated corner of the Mojave desert in Utah. Unfortunately, the flowers can sting and leave a nasty rash Worse still, it's not called Scorpion Weed for nothing - pick this desert blossom up and you'll get a nasty rash akin to the perils of touching poison ivy or poison oak. The weed is part of the Phacelia family and it doesn't always appear every year. But given the right combination of winter precipitation and April sunshine and you have deep purple time. - StumbleUpon.

I also do not know who made the comments, or how accurate they are. I take zero credit in the pictures, I just wanted to compile them nicely for all to see.

After quitting his job, photographer and artist Kien Lam took a trip around the world.
Over the course of a year, he visited 17 countries and took 6,237 photographs. Wanting to share his epic journey with others, Lam put his photos together to create a kind of time-lapse video that has enthralled the Web. In a little less than five minutes, viewers are treated to beautiful shots of the U.S., England, France, Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Egypt, Turkey, Jordan, Thailand, Indonesia, Japan, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Bolivia, and Peru.
On Lam's official site, he explains that he didn't really have an itinerary in mind when he set out. I had a direction I wanted to head and a goal of following the sun to get as many warm days as possible. 2010 was a particularly cold year in San Francisco and I just wanted to wear shorts and flip-flops as many days as possible to make up for that.
