Description


We present VI photometry of the metal-poor inner halo globular clusters NGC 6293 and NGC 6541 using the WFPC2 on board the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Our color-magnitude diagrams of the clusters show well-defined blue horizontal-branch populations, consistent with their low metallicities and old ages. NGC 6293 appears to have blue straggler stars in the cluster's central region. We discuss the interstellar reddening and the distance modulus of NGC 6293 and NGC 6541 and obtain E(B-V)=0.40 and (m-M)_0_=14.61 for NGC 6293 and E(B-V)=0.14 and (m-M)_0_=14.19 for NGC 6541. Our results confirm that NGC 6293 and NGC 6541 are clearly located in the Galaxy's central regions (R_GC_<=3kpc).
