However, on extremely rare days when cold air is trapped in the canyon and topped by a layer of warm air, which in combination with moisture and condensation, form the phenomenon referred to as the full cloud inversion. In what resembles something between ocean waves and fast clouds, Grand Canyon is completely obscured by fog, making the visitors feel as if they are walking on clouds. <\/p>\n<p>This video was filmed as part of SKYGLOW (www.skyglowproject.com), an ongoing crowdfunded quest to explore the effects and dangers of urban light pollution in contrast with some of the most incredible dark sky areas in North America. This project is being produced in collaboration with International Dark-Sky Association (darksky.org), a non-profit fighting for the preservation of night skies around the globe.<\/p>\n<p>The film was shot on Canon 5DSR &#038; 5DIII cameras &#038; lenses sponsored by Canon USA, aided by Alpine Labs&#8217; Michron &#038; Pulse, powered by Paul C. Buff Vagabond Mini. LRTimelapse was used to process some of the shots. Adobe Lightroom and Premiere used for editing and processing. <\/p>\n<p>Original video premiered on BBC Earth: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.com\/earth\/story\/20170502-on-rare-occasions-the-grand-canyon-fills-with-thick-cloud\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.bbc.com\/earth\/story\/20170502-on-rare-occasions-the-grand-canyon-fills-with-thick-cloud<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Follow up to this video, KAIBAB REQUIEM can be seen here: <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/246551452\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/vimeo.com\/246551452<\/a><\/p>\n<p>KAIBAB ELEGY Photo Stills: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2CkGARQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2CkGARQ<\/a><br \/>\nSKYGLOW Book Stills: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2vXO7Ag\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2vXO7Ag<\/a><br \/>\nOther Photos from SKYGLOWPROJECT.COM: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2whWSaQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2whWSaQ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Credits:<br \/>\nProducer\/Editor\/Shooter: Harun Mehmedinovic, Music: Pete Davis &#038; James Banbury<\/p>\n<p>Special Thanks:<br \/>\nGavin Heffernan and Aida Bogunic, Semezdin &#038; Sanja Mehmedinovic, Matt Walker &#038; Pierangelo Pirak, Aaron McNally &#038; Canon USA, Kevin Noble &#038; Paul C.

From incredible locations like the active K\u012blauea volcano in Hawaii to Alberta\u2019s majestic Northern Lights, SKYGLOW takes viewers on a visual journey through time, exploring our civilization\u2019s evolving relationship with light and the night sky through the ages.<\/p>\n<p>See how the ancient Puebloan archaeoastronomy sites of our native elders have now been replaced with the blinding \u201cartificial day\u201d of over-lit modern metropolises, and learn about the \u201cDark Sky Movement\u201d fighting to reclaim the pristine darkness the Earth had enjoyed for billions of years. The importance of America\u2019s threatened National Parks is also highlighted in a section of stunning landscapes from numerous parks, including Shenandoah, Yosemite, Acadia, Death Valley, Yellowstone and many more.<\/p>\n<p>Completed in collaboration with the International Dark Sky Association (IDA), SKYGLOW also explores the numerous towns and sites that IDA has identified as official \u201cDark-Sky\u201d Communities, Cities, Parks, Reserves and Sanctuaries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Millions of visitors a year come to Arizona&#8217;s Grand Canyon National Park, one of the seven natural wonders of the world and the most visited national park in the western United States.
