Bootstrap Carousel left aligns instead of center align

I used some code from another site to create a Bootstrap 5 carousel. Unfortunately, my carousel left aligns and I would like it to be in the center of the container.

<div class="container-lg my-3">
<div id="myCarousel" class="carousel slide" data-bs-ride="carousel">

    <!-- Carousel indicators -->
    <ol class="carousel-indicators">
        <li data-bs-target="#myCarousel" data-bs-slide-to="0" class="active"></li>
        <li data-bs-target="#myCarousel" data-bs-slide-to="1"></li>
        <li data-bs-target="#myCarousel" data-bs-slide-to="2"></li>
        <li data-bs-target="#myCarousel" data-bs-slide-to="3"></li>
        <li data-bs-target="#myCarousel" data-bs-slide-to="4"></li>
        <li data-bs-target="#myCarousel" data-bs-slide-to="5"></li>
    </ol>
   
    <div class="carousel-inner">
        <div class="carousel-item active">
            <img src="images/carousel/rt4.jpg" class="d-block w-75" alt="Slide 1">
        </div>
        <div class="carousel-item">
            <img src="images/carousel/rt2.jpg" class="d-block w-75" alt="Slide 2">
        </div>
        <div class="carousel-item">
            <img src="images/carousel/rt3.jpg" class="d-block w-75" alt="Slide 3">
        </div>
        <div class="carousel-item">
            <img src="images/carousel/rt1.jpg" class="d-block w-75" alt="Slide 4">
        </div>
        <div class="carousel-item">
            <img src="images/carousel/rt7.jpg" class="d-block w-75" alt="Slide 5">
        </div>
            <div class="carousel-item">
            <img src="images/carousel/rt8.jpg" class="d-block w-75" alt="Slide 6">
        </div>
    </div> <!-- Close carousel inner -->

    <!-- Carousel controls -->
    <a class="carousel-control-prev" href="#myCarousel" data-bs-slide="prev">
        <span class="carousel-control-prev-icon"></span>
    </a>
    <a class="carousel-control-next" href="#myCarousel" data-bs-slide="next">
        <span class="carousel-control-next-icon"></span>
    </a>
</div> <!-- Close Carousel div -->

Any suggestions on how to center this?

Solution

  • Add mx-auto margin utility class to each image, see: Aligning images

    .carousel-item {
background:skyblue;
