DANG!
Was this fly biting you when you took this picture?

 
Looks worse than it was
She was just cleaning herself, and when I finished taking pictures, I made it fly away before my luck changed.

Sylvius sp. (Chrysopinae) - female.
One female of this same genus was boring me just yesterday. As I had nothing to catch her, I had to chase her away.
