Pictures by amateurs from France:

VALLEE DE LA SEINE, 1977:

Several people have observed this object above the valley of the river Seine an evening in August 1977. They said the object was hovering several minutes then disappeared suddenly. One of the witnesses, M. Gilbert, managed to capture it with his 110 format camera.

UZES, GARD, 1974:

Christophe F... photographed this UFO which was low above the ground and at a distance of 23 meters from him, near Uzès in the department of Gard, South of France, on November 19, 1974 at 06:05 P.M.

Here is this picture in a larger size.

REVIGNY SUR ORNAIN, 1975:

A Gendarmerie patrol took this UFO picture on June 6, 1975 near Revigny Sur Ornain at about 09:30 P.M. At this moment the object was hovering above the ground. Gendarmerie is the military police in France.

I initially wrote that it was taken by a gendarmerie patrol, because this is what was said in the ufology literature, but a reader informed me that the photographer, indeed a gendarme, was actually alone, he had gone to the country to take pictures when he took this image and the following one.

Here is this picture in a larger size.

REVIGNY SUR ORNAIN, 1975:

The second photograph by the Gendarme on June 6, 1975 near Revigny Sur Ornain. This one was shot at the time when the phenomenon left the ground and shot up to the sky. No simple explanation has been found since for the reported events and the confirming photographs.

VALENSOLE, 1973:

The second of the two photographs taken in Valensole on June 17, 1973. The first image shows essentially a halo, the second shows some solid object accompanied by a light.

CHANTEREINE, 1973:

Jean Marc Bisson, aged 16, took this photograph from the window of his residence in Chantereine in the Seine-et-Marne on June 7, 1973 between 09:30 P.M. and 10:00 P.M. he had been drawn to the window by the mewings of his she-cat, and there he saw strange gleams in the sky, coming from the South-east and going towards the North-East, so he decided to grab his Kodak instamatic camera.

The largest of the gleams seen on this photograph had the apparent diameter equivalent to that of the Moon for its central part. There was no noise, the weather was stormy. After having taken the picture, he descended to get his parents, but there had been nothing any more to see when they looked. It had the picture developped and entrusted enlargements to the investigator of Lumières dans la Nuit Alain Baraud. Unfortunately, the negatives were lost, Jean Marc Bisson explained that his two years old brother had found them, had played with them and had torn them apart.
