I am unable to place this, from this photo. Have you any other shots, please?

Only similar.
Maybe here the wing seems a little better.

Maybe a male
Aedes vexans? Thin pale bands on the tarsi and the coloring on the palpi seems to fit as well. I'm not sure though.

Can Aedes vexans be this orange? I thought it was a brownish-greyish species.

Generally they are more brownish, but they can vary. There are no other north European species with those thin light bands on the tarsal segments.
