Amazing! Did you take it with your phone? Or a proper camera with macro lens?

Thank you! A proper camera (R7) with a 85mm lens :) I know some people manage great macro with their phones, but I couldn't have gotten close enough with a phone, the bees hurried back into their tunnels whenever I got near.

Is the r7 APSC? I do tend to find about 120mm equivalent is pretty nice for macro stuff tbh
