MASTER II  robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru) 
located in OAFA was pointed to the  GRB170705A (Starling et al.,GCN #21289)
24 sec after notice time  and 38 sec after trigger time at 2017-07-05 
02:46:27 UT  at high zenit distance.
On our first (10s  exposure)  unfiltered exposition we haven`t found 
optical transient  within SWIFT error-box  (ra=191.704 dec=18.2928 r=0.05)
brighter than 15.0.


We marginally found OT at Swift UVOT position (Starling et al.,GCN #21289) 
on coaded image ID=79921 with m ~ 17.0.

The unfiltered magnitude is about ~17 m .
The big differences with UVOT magnitude may be connected with high GRB
redshift because our CCD is more red.

The observations made on zenit distance = 79 degrees, galaxy latitude b = 
81 degree. The moon (86 % bright part) is 66 degrees above the horizon. 
The distance between  moon and  object is 56
The sun  altitude  is -63.1 degree.
The object can be observed till 2017-07-05 03:46:20 .
