I confirmed this transient object on images taken with 25cm reflector (fl=850mm) and SBIG ST-8XE camera at Mayhill, NM, USA (Global-rent-a-scope).
Position end figures are 28.03 and 41.77.
Photometry results are 12.13V, 12.16Rc, 12.28Ic and 12.13B at 6.1019-6.1073 Sep 2011 UT.
According to its blue color, it might be dwarf nova rather than classical nova.
