COMM: The 
tropical waters of Sri Lanka are home to wide
range of marine life. But when photographer
Patrick Dykstra films here he is in pursuit
of the largest animal on Earth. The blue whale.
00:36
COMM: Patrick has spent a decade trying to
film and photograph blue whales in clear water,
until in 2009 he found what he'd been looking
for off the coast of Sri Lanka. He became
one of the first photographers to document
the local blue whale population.
00:59
COMM: He's returned to film the Sri Lankan
blue whales every year since. And this year
he was able to shoot both underwater and from
the air using drones.
01:10
COMM: His footage beautifully captures the
incredible size and grace of these marine
giants as they dwarf the divers swimming nearby.
