These open clusters are located in the northwest corner of the Carina Nebula, seen in the lower left of the image. The area is located about 7,200 light-years from Earth.
Processing notes: to correct corner star shapes before integration, I ran batch BXT (in "correct only" mode) against all of the light images. Color palette is SHO-based including color calibration, background neutralization, and tweaks with curves transformation.
