This location is simply superb!! I just couldn't resist taking a few shots of those famous moving rocks. I thought finding them would be an easy task but it took us about an hour to find some that you could actually really see the trails. Guess that is why it is called the racetrack. These rocks really looked like they were racing each other. Simple low angle composition using a 2-stop ND Grad filter on the top third of the frame to balance the shot and keep those beautiful colors in the sky.
