Unlike the other image, the wing venation does look good for Musca domestica or one of its close relatives.

Still, even some other families have similar wing venation, so it would be useful to know if the arista is plumose (feathery) or not.

Some of the experienced fly-identifiers may be able to ID this one at a glance.
