Sep. 05 (UT) 08:45:52 - 09:50:20 and Sep. 06 (UT) 09:36:57 - 11:14:22.

The afterglow (Immler et al., GCN 11159; Guidorzi et al., GCN 11160; Ivanov
et al.,
GCN 11161; Klunko et al., GCN 11162) is well detected on stacked images
for three epochs.

Preliminary photometry of unfiltered image against USNO-B1.0 1127-0027229,
assuming R=16.16  is following:
