(IKI) report on behalf of  larger GRB  follow-up collaboration:

We observed the field of  GRB 120811C (Barlow et al., GCN  13622) with 
0.4-m telescope of ISON-Kitab observatory  starting on  Aug. 11 (UT) 
15:53:49.  We took  several unfiltered images of 30 s exposures.  The 
optical afterglow  (Denisenko et al., GCN 13623) is clearly detected in 
single initial frames.  A photometry of some co-added frames is based  on 
the SDSS stars
