We present the results of Thuan & Gunn r CCD imaging observations of the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) sample of emission–line galaxies (ELGs), selected by the presence of Hα emission in low–resolution objective prism spectra. In this work we characterize photometrically and morphologically a total of 212 objects from the UCM survey. This Paper presents the observations and basic reductions, and lists a set of photometric parameters calculated for each UCM object. In addition, for the first time in a ELGs sample, we have determined the morphological classification of the objects using simultaneously five different criteria.
