K1-27 seems to be brightest in H alpha.
Thanks Glen

One of the first spectra obtained of note for K1-27 is
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1981PASP...93..435H

If you after some interesting images (good for obscure ones) see PNIC: Planetary Nebula Image Catalogue

This is where I got one for He2-434 in Pavo, which is the best one I've found of it.

As for PN G cat : PNe Misclassified listing I use this on line, where I got some of K1-27's data … http://130.79.128.5/viz-bin/nph-Cat/txt?IV/24
and the whole PN G main listing http://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/viz-bin/nph-Cat/txt?V/84 .
