Several Proto–Planetary Nebulae (PPN) candidates have been observed at the Canada France Hawaii Telescope with the High Resolution Camera (HRCam) (McClure et al. 1989, PASP, 101, 1156). Candidates were selected based on their IRAS [12]–[25] and [25]–[60] colors and their lack of variability. With HRCams' small angular pixel size (0.13″/pixel) and active optics we achieved an average angular resolution of 0.65″ in V and I waveband images.
