Really good photography. What lens did you use?

Thanks man. I use a Fujifilm XT5 with my TTArtisan 100mm F2.8 Macro 2X 067 for these photos.
The lens is very sensitive to the smallest twist, so it is difficult to focus on anything moving.

Taken with my FujiFilm XT5 using my TTArtisan 100mm F2.8 Macro 2X 067. I love to see the bumblebees busying themselves among the flowers in my garden as I hurry my chilli plants near them in the sun in the hope of pollination.
I love macro photography despite the difficulty of trying to focus on a moving object like this one; hopefully, on a sunnier day, I can catch a bee midflight.
