We asked readers of The Local for their best photos of yesterday's partial eclipse in France. Here are a few of our favourites.
Streets, parks and rooftops in France filled with onlookers clutching eclipse glasses and homemade pinhole projectors, all hoping for a clear patch of sky on Wednesday evening.
Many weren't disappointed: readers described light taking on a strange, silvery cast, shadows sharpening, and temperatures dipping as the sun shrank to a thin crescent.
We put out a call for your photos of the moment — and you delivered. Here's what you sent us.
