On the terrasse yesterday. Around 10 mm long. I could not even decide which family it belongs to. :(

A Sarcophagidae. The shining is (partly) dillusion, you flashed and/or had the sun in the back.

I often forget this family. I am now trying to go further (sub-family, genus, ...), but without success so far :|
