Scientific paper

The paper presents UBV RI photometry, based on CCD frames, of stellar cluster associated with the LMC HII region N159A, as well as of the surrounding stellar field, with particular attention given to the observations and to reduction procedures. In the reduction procedures, the DAOPHOT photometry program was adapted to observations of stars in clusters embedded in bright filamentary nebulae. The results presented include the magnitudes for each star, obtained in five wavelength bands, both in the instrumental UBVRI system and after transformation to Landolt's (1983) standard system.
