Sub-arcsecond (0.7″) V and I images have been obtained of 13 new proto-planetary nebulae (PPN). The observations were made with the image-stabilization camera (HRCam) on the 3.6 m Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope. The goal of the program is to study the mass-loss history of the stars and to determine when in the evolution the shaping seen in PN occurs.
