Scientific paper

VBLUW photometric observations of stars in emission nebulae of the LMC are reported. The luminosities and extinctions of the stars are derived. Agreement is found between the average photometric extinctions of the nebulae and the extinctions derived from the Balmer line decrement measured by Caplan and Deharveng (1985 and 1986). The photometric extinctions are shown in the CO map of the LMC (Cohen et al., 1988).
