Spectrograms as well as monochromatic photographs and isophotes in three emission features have been obtained for YM 29, an old planetary nebula of Peimbert type PN I. The morphology depends on the ionization state: diffuse forbidden O III emission is accompanied by fine forbidden N II, forbidden S II filaments. Moreover the radiation is stratified, with regions bright in the forbidden O II line located 10-40 arcsec closer to the nucleus than the forbidden N II, forbidden S II emission sites. Similar morphology distinctions and stratification, typifying nebulae ionized by the central star's ultraviolet radiation, have previously been reported in a kindred object, Simeiz 22.
