I am completely lost with this one, unable even to say which genus it belongs to. Any help would be much appreciated.
Taken in Bambury, Oxfordshire, in a garden. August 21rst 2010.

Another view. And sorry for the quality. The little thing wouldn't stop to save its life.

This looks like
Platycheirus albimanus, female.
Wait for Andre or Gerard to confirm but I think it is correct.
