We observed nearby galaxies listed in GWGC in the error area of
the G211117 with HOWPol (15 arcmin FOV optical imager) attached
to the 1.5m Kanata telescope on 2015-12-27 (UTC). We performed
R and I bands imaging observations. No optical transient brighter
the upper limits of the observed fields was detected in both
bands. The observed objects and 3-sigma upper limits are listed
below.
