Pozanenko (IKI) report on behalf of larger collaboration:
We observed a filed of the Swift GRB 130505A (Cannizzo et al. GCN 14563)
with 0.7m telescope of Institute of Astronomy, Kharkiv National University
between May 05 (UT) 20:52:35 - 21:19:57. A set of images of 180 s were
taken in R-filter. In the combined image we clearly detect optical
afterglow (Cannizzo et al., GCN 14563; Tanvir et al., GCN 14567; Kuroda et
al., GCN 14568). Preliminary photometry is based on the nearby SDSS stars:
