We present the results of an investigation of M1-79 and K3-82. Physical parameters like expansion velocities, spatial shapes, Zanstrahydrogen-temperatures, etc. were obtained by use of high resolution spectroscopy and CCD-images.

The two PN are medium excitation and exhibit usual expansion velocities. To find out the spatial shapes we utilized the simple model of a truncated spherical shell. A comparison between the theoretical intensity ratios from this model and the measurements is leading to the conclusion that both PN have the structure of a ring. K3-82 is seen pole-on, Ml-79 is seen edge-on.
