The Whale Beneath the Ice

Create a breathtaking Arctic nature short beneath a floating sheet of sea ice. A humpback whale glides through deep cobalt water as sunlight fractures into moving blue patterns above its back, with tiny air bubbles rising toward cracks in the ice. Begin with a wide underwater 18mm shot from below, slowly orbit the whale, then push into a respectful 85mm close-up of its eye before pulling back to show its enormous scale. Use realistic underwater particles, soft caustic lighting, natural whale movement, and an immersive low-frequency ocean soundscape. Keep the mood peaceful and awe-inspiring, perfect for US wildlife creators and vertical video.
