We continue observations of of the field of GRB 210722A (D'Avanzo et
al., GCN 30475; Page et al., GCN 30483; Barthelmy et al. GCN 30489;
Wood et al., GCN30490) with AZT-20 telescope of Assy-Turgen
observatory. We obtained several frames in r' - filter starting on
21-07-23 (UT) 21:34:39. We clearly detect the bright optical afterglow
(D'Avanzo et al., GCN 30475; Zhu et al., GCN 30476; Pankov et al., GCN
30478 & 30488; Kumar et al., GCN 30481; Butler et al., GCN 30484;
Thoene et al., GCN 30487; Jelinek et al., GCN 30492).
Preliminary photometry of the afterglow in the stacked image is following

The photometry is based on the nearby PS1 stars.
The light curve can still be approximated by a single power law with a
an index of -1.1.
