Abstract
In this poster paper we present ISOCAM1 imaging of the well known LBV AG Car and the candidate LBV G79.29+0.46. AG Car has been extensively studied in the ultraviolet, optical and infrared. The optical nebula around this star was first discussed by Thackeray, 1950. Optical imaging is discussed by Paresce and Nota, 1989. The nebula is bipolar with strong emission in the NE and SW, and a size of about 40 by 30”. Far infrared emission has been observed in the nebular ring by McGregor et al., 1988a and McGregor et al., 1988b.
