  The results from a Hubble Space Telescope (HST) snapshot survey of post-AGB
objects are shown. The aim of the survey is to complement existing HST images
of PPN and to connect various types of nebulosities with physical and chemical
properties of their central stars. Nebulosities are detected in 15 of 33
sources. Images and photometric and geometric measurements are presented. For
sources with nebulosities we see a morphological bifurcation into two groups,
DUPLEX and SOLE, as previous studies have found. We find further support to the
previous results suggesting that this dichotomy is caused by a difference in
optical thickness of the dust shell. The remaining 18 sources are classified as
stellar post-AGB objects, because our observations indicate a lack of
nebulosity. We show that some stellar sources may in fact be DUPLEX or SOLE
based on their infrared colors. The cause of the differences among the groups
are investigated. We discuss some evidence suggesting that high progenitor-mass
AGB stars tend to become DUPLEX post-AGB objects. Intermediate progenitor-mass
AGB stars tend to be SOLE post-AGB objects. Most of the stellar sources
probably have low mass progenitors and do not seem to develop nebulosities
during the post-AGB phase and therefore do not become planetary nebulae.
