Bubbles/star formations

    Looks like 5 stars forming circle around the bright pillar. Another circle formation to the right are these remains of bubbles? In classifying these I have marked them as bubbles as this is the only tool able to outline the formation that I think I can see. Do stars initially form in a circular formation like this and then expand out from the centre until they are lost in the mass of stars hence unable to see their circular formation?

    Looks like I should have read the frequently asked questions first which gives me the answer to most of my question but this is my first image where the stars are still in the bubble formation having sucked up all the surrounding dust cloud. (Maybe)??
