GCN 25398) with the Siding Springs 2m Spectral imager of Las Cumbres Observatory (LCO) on 2019-08-22 and on 2019-08-27 in the g, r, and i-bands.  To perform image subtraction, we used references from the DECam Legacy Survey (DECaLS) and the Dark Energy Survey (DES).  The transient is not detected in g-band on either night to an upper limit of 20.3 mag.  We show our photometry in g-, r-, and i-bands below:\n\n\n| UT dateobs | g mag | r mag | i mag |\n\n| 2019-08-22 | > 20.3 | 23.3 +/- 0.23 | > 21.0 |\n\n| 2019-08-27 | > 20.3 | 23.0 +/- 0.07 | 22.28 +/- 0.30 |\n\n\nOur measurements show a slow rise in the i-band for desgw-190814f, while the r-band measurements may be consistent with no evolution to within the uncertainties.  We note that this transient host galaxy has a spectroscopic redshift from the 2dF survey (z~0.07) that is consistent with the LIGO/Virgo localization.\n\n\nWe encourage further monitoring of this transient.",
