Thank you JariF for the suggestion. The program you suggested works really well. The photographs were taken with a dissection microscope with a mounted digital camera. I obviously need to do more work with, especially with lighting.

ID, if possible, appreciated!

Scathophaga. Is it stercoraria?

Location: Ljubljana, Slovenia. Collected on March 26th by some bushes. Slightly boggy.

I agree with paul: S. stercoraria.

Nice pics. A slightly darker background could help, keeping it from reaching white saturation.
