Moon rise over Grand Canyon with smoke clearing…

View with alternate video source

Scene notes:

…out and high clouds moving rapidly, moonlit The full moon rises behind high clouds. The view from this light is dynamic, made more so by smoke from nearby fires. The smoke is seen as a nebulous cloud, only thinly veiling this view. Stars are seen above the clouds. How is this a moonrise? The long exposure of the individual frames allows for more light to be captured in the image, enough to be of comparable levels to a sunrise at certain times. The view of the canyon is deep, the point of view is from Duck on a Rock viewpoint facing northeast.
