The first results from an analysis of CCD photometry of blue low surface–brightness galaxies are presented. The galaxies have a wide range of morphologies, luminosities and ages – all appear to be older than 2 Gyr. We also discuss the results from spectroscopy of ESO 146–G14, a large disk galaxy with low chemical abundances.
