Is it possible to identify this fly? I think it may be a tachinid, but I'm not sure.
Photographed near Den Haag, Zuid-Holland, The Netherlands on 24 May 2017.
Not the best photos unfortunately.

Thelaira nigripes.

You are struggling with focal depth, you might try using smaller diafragma (higher number).

Thanks again, Theo!
This one I should have known, I think.

Will try smaller diafragma next time.

f/8.0 - ISO 400 - 1/320 seems to be a good choice for me !
