We observed the GRB 210104A (Fermi GBM team, GCN 29232; Troja et al., 
GCN  29233) with AZT-20 telescope of Assy-Turgen observatory starting on 
  Jan. 04 (UT) 12:55:33 in r'-filter.  We detect the optical afterglow 
(Troja et al., GCN  29233; Xin et al., GCN 29235; Hu et al., GCN 29236; 
Hosokawa et al., GCN  29237).

Preliminary photometry of the afterglow obtained in a few initial 
imaging is following
