Two MASTER   robotic telescopes (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru)
located  near Baykal Lake (Tunka)  and Blagoveschensk was pointed to the
Swift GRB 100901A (Immler et al., GCN Circ 11159) 47  sec  after Notice 
time  (103 s after trigger time) and 45 s after Notice time (101s after trigger 
time).

  We have a number polarization, unfiltered and R images  with exposition 
20, 30, 40, 60... s.  but near horizont.
