report
We observed the optical afterglow of GRB070518 (Guidorzi et
al, GCN6415) with a 1.5m telescope at Observatorio Sierra
Nevada using R and I-band filters. The afterglow is found to
have R~22.2, relatively to the nearby USNO-A2.0 (R_usno=18.7)
on a 60-minute combined image with exposure mean time 23:04UT
(i.e. 8.6h after the GRB).
