We present the results of CCD BVI Johnson-Cousins photometry down to V~19mag in the regions of the unstudied stellar groups Pismis 23 and BH 222, both projected close to the direction towards the Galactic centre. We measured V magnitude and B-V and V-I colours for a total of 928 stars in fields of about 4'x4'.
