MASTER II  robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru) 
located in Tunka(Siberia) was pointed to the  GRB110411A 19 sec s after 
notice time and 44 sec after GRB time at 2011-04-11 19:34:55.3 UT in two 
polarizations.
On our first (10s exposure) set we haven`t found optical  transient 
within SWIFT error-box (ra=19 25 45 dec=+67 43 48 r=0.050000).
The 5-sigma upper limit has been about 17.5 mag
Observations and data reduction is continued.
