We asked readers of The Local for their best photos of yesterday's partial eclipse in France. Here are a few of our favourites.

Wednesday marks a rare solar eclipse that will be visible - weather permitting - from France. But the protective glasses needed to safely watch the eclipse are selling out fast.

Paris is preparing for the solar eclipse. The last one here in France was in 1999. So this is one not to miss, especially for the astrophotographer we met.
