pellucid hoverfly enjoying some flowers

Where i was, i saw this hoverfly. I had seen this hoverfly 2 times before around the same location and i really wanted to photograph it. I had no idea which species this was, but it looked so cool. Then i saw this individual sitting on the white flowers. I quickly went to it, took my shot and got this amazing result!
