A. Moskvitin (SAO), V. Rumyantsev (CrAO), A. Pozanenko (IKI),
A. Volnova (IKI), N. Pankov (IKI), O. Spiridonova (SAO) report
on behalf of IKI GRB-FuN and SAO GRB follow-up team.

We observed the field of the SVOM GRB 261110A (Wang et al., GCN 46215)
with the Shajn 2.6-meter telescope (ZTSh) of the Crimean Astrophysical
Observatory (CrAO) on November 10 and obtained two series in R band
(t_mid - T0 = 6.12 and 10.81 hours respectively).

The afterglow  (Wu et al., GCN 46218; Li et al., GCN 46219; Moskvitin
et al., GCN 46220; Angulo et al., GCN 46223) is clearly detected
in stacked images of the two epochs with the following parameters.

The photometry (Vega) is preliminary and based on nearby SDSS stars
(Lupton 2005 transformation) and not corrected for Galactic extinction.
