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

We observed the field of GRB 150910A (Pagani et al., GCN  18264Not found
 
 
)  with 
Zeiss-1000 (East) 1-m telescope of Tien Shan Astronomical Observatory on 
Sep. 10 (UT) 18:02:59 -- 20:37:38.  We obtained several images in R and 
B filters.  In both filters the afterglow  (Pagani et al., GCN 18264Not found
 
 
; 
Zheng & Filippenko, GCN 18265Not found
 
 
) is clearly visible. Within 2.5 hours of 
observations we do not detect significant fading of the afterglow. The 
photometry of combined images are following

The photometry is based on nearby SDSS stars

Our photometry in R-filter is in agreement with  in subsequent 
observations (Moskvitin & Goranskij, GCN 18275Not found
 
 
).
