We observed the field of GRB 151215A (Gibson et al., GCN 18691)  with 
Zeiss-1000 (East) 1-m telescope of Tien Shan Astronomical Observatory 
starting on Dec. 15 (UT) 16:47:23.  We obtained several images in R 
filter.  The afterglow  (Cenko, GCN 18692)  is detected  in a combined 
image. Preliminary photometry of the afterglow is following
