We present mid-IR and far-IR images of a variety of AGB stars and red supergiants. The mid-IR images were all taken with the Berkeley/Livermore mid-IR array camera, which employs a 10 × 64 pixel Hughes photoconductor. All the images reported here were taken using a 10% bandpass CVF, at various wavelengths in the 10μm atmospheric window. These were supplemented by IRAS images, some constructed from survey scans, others made as Additional Observations during the pointed phase of the IRAS mission. We have so far observed 11 such sources with our mid-IR camera, and report here that only two of them (R Aql and V Hya) appear to be unresolved.
