RARE, footage of a blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus) passing by underwater, the entire body and shape of the whale is seen, lit by natural sunlight. At first the whale’s mouth is agape. The entire whale is better seen after it finishes passing through a cloud of krill (Euphausia pacifica). Mysterious, pale blue, see how this whale gets its name BLUE whale. Moody shot. The whale has followed krill food (Euphausia pacifica) up out of the deep ocean. The water is thick with krill and nutrients, making it hazy. In Pacific Ocean near San Diego, California, summer. Pretty blue water. The elegant ocean surface can be seen from below, throughout the shot. Baleen whale feeding on krill. Marine mammal. Plankton. North America West Coast.
