We observed the field of GRB 230812B (Fermi GBM Team, GCN 34386; Scotton et al., GCN 34392; Page et al. GCN 34394; Kuin et al., GCN 34399; Casentini et al., GCN 34402; Frederiks et al., GCN 34403) with ZTSH 2.6m telescope of CrAO observatory in R-filter. We detected the afterglow (e.g. Lesage et al., GCN 34387; Scotton et al., GCN 34392; Page, GCN 34394; Zheng & Filippenko, GCN 34395; Lipunov et al., GCN 34396; Salgundi et al., GCN 34397; Ackley et al., GCN 34398; Xiong et al., GCN 34401; Casentini et al., GCN 34402; Mao et al., GCN 34404; Odeh et al., GCN 34405; Moskvitin et al., GCN 34406; Leonini et al., GCN 34408; de Ugarte Postigo et al., GCNs 24409, 34410; Belkin et al., GCN 34412, 34421) in a stacked image. Preliminary photometry of the object is following
