Observatory, Italy. Member of:
AAVSO - American Association of Variable Star Observers.
ISSP - Italian Supernovae Search Project.

The observations started 11.72 min after the GRB trigger,
with our Newton telescope D=250 mm F/D=4.8.
Weather conditions were good.
We co-added 52 exposures of 60 sec each.
