"Using DFOSC on the Danish 1.5m telescope at La Silla, we have obtained
R-band imaging of the field of the Integral-detected GRB060130
(Mereghetti et al., GCN #4615) starting at Jan 30.375 (4.5h after the
trigger). Visual comparison with the DSS-2 does not reveal any transient
sources brighter than the DSS-2 limit. Our image reaches a detection limit
slightly deeper than R=22.
Our R-band image of the field can be seen at this URL:
