there is another, smaller, just above the left one (un-identified), and yet another one above this one, two times higher and to the right, so the whole chain forms the 1/6th circle, centred at 47 Tuc.
Impressive image..
The one above the LH cluster is an open cluster, ESO 28-22, aka Cl Kron 7, Cl Lindsay 11, & [RZ2005] 4. The faint one two times higher and to the right is another open cluster, Cl Lindsay 14, aka [RZ 2005] 9. Info from Aladin, Simbad catalogue.
