We observed the field of GRB 151027A (Maselli  et al., GCN 18478) with 
Zeiss-600 telescope of Mt. Terskol observatory in R-filter starting on Oct. 
28 (UT) 21:23:11. We obtained several images in R-filter. The afterglow 
(Maselli et al., GCN 18478; Zheng and  Filippenko, GCN 18479) is clearly 
detected in a combined image. The photometry of the combined image is
