Abstract:

A catalogue of narrowband CCD images of 100 southern and 1 northern Planetary Nebulae is presented. The data are images taken in the light of the H$\alpha$, H$\beta$, [OIII]500.7 nm, and [NII]658.4 nm lines. For each image we give the exposure time, the maximum extent of the nebula, and the seeing measured from the frames themselves. For ease of reference, we have added an alphabetical list of the objects. Our list will be useful for morphological studies of Planetary Nebulae, and is complementary to previously published lists, especially the one of Schwarz et al. (1992).
