Scientific paper

A group of amateur astronomers (Deep Sky Hunters) has identified ˜50 candidate PNe by visually searching the 1st and 2nd generation red Digital Sky Survey images. Candidate PNe are then observed in Hα with larger telescopes, primarily the WIYN 3.5-m on Kitt Peak, and the 1.2-m and 1.5-m at Haute-Provence Observatory (OHP). Thus far, ˜20 new PNe have been found. These objects have a strong tendency to have low surface brightness and to be relatively round.
