An extraordinarily rich galactic starfield makes the visual identification of any possible objects quite difficult here, several suggestive clumps of stars to choose from at the coordinates. This is in Baade's Window just north of NGC 6522 and NGC 6528, there is no richer starfield in the sky as we peer into the heart of our galaxy.
