MASTER II  robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru) 
located in Tunka was starting survey on the FERMI  GRB140825.33 error-box 
(ra=22 51 21 dec=+31 05 24 r=2.660000)  19218 sec after notice time and 
23046 sec after trigger time at 2014-08-25 14:16:52 UT. The 5-sigma upper 
limit on our first (180s exposure)  set is about 18.73mag

MASTER II  robotic telescope 
located in Kislovodsk was starting survey on the FERMI  GRB140825.33 
error-box (ra=22 51 21 dec=+31 05 24 r=2.660000)  29715 sec after notice 
time and 33543 sec after trigger time at 2014-08-25 17:11:49 UT. The 
5-sigma upper limit on our first (180s exposure)  set is about 18.86mag

MASTER-Tunka auto-detection system discovered 
MASTER OT J230448.20+324534.1 at
(RA, Dec) = 23h 04m 48.20s +32d 45m 34.1s on 2014-08-25.62245 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 18.6m (limit 19.9m).

The OT is seen in 2 images. There is no minor planet at this place.
THere is SDSS9 J230447.99+324540.9 galaxy (Rmag = 22) with 7.3 arcsec 
offset.

We have reference image without OT on 2013-08-30.62251 UT with unfiltered 
magnitude limit 19.9m.

Spectral observations are required.
