Nice! I'm not good with taking pics. Then again, all I have is a cell phone (and a shaky hand).

Tank, you mention Fuji film. Are you still using film?  Yikes, I thought that film was/is an antique system assigned to the graveyard of photography.

Whatever method you are using, the results are spectacular. Keep doing whatever you are doing.

These latest shots are spectacular, Tank. Were they straight out of camera, or did you do any processing?

No I'm digital now and have been for decades. I did turn late, I had to wait until Sony bought Minolta and brought out the A100 with a 10MP sensor. The reason for this was that an A4 print at 300dpi is 10mp. 

Fujifilm is the camera brand of Fuji Photographic. One thing that I really love about Fufi cameras is that they have built on their film history. The cameras have internal colour gamut choices and these gamuts are named after their film types like Velvia and Provia and behave like those films. I use the Velvia gamut which was Fuji's reply to Kodachrome, so punchy colour.

No post processing except cropping for composition. My new camera a Lumix DC-TX95 has a burst mode with post focus and focus stacking. I'll tell you how that works when I've tried it! :)

Went to Yorkshire Lavender today. The grow lavender, fairly obviously, and lots of other flowers as well. Don't go if you are scared of bees. I would guess there were tens of thousands of them.

Lumix DC-TZ95 for those interested.

No I don't think so and there was no obvious entrance. Not that we were looking to go in as we were on a limited time schedule due to the baby.
