Abstract:

The first complete CCD BVRI-filter light curves of the eclipsing near-contact binary V387 Cyg were obtained during 5 nights in 2004 at Kryoneri Observatory, Greece. Their analysis with the W-D program indicates a semi-detached configuration with possible cool spots, although no O' Connell effect is present and a strong asymmetry after Min II can be explained assuming either a strong flare or circumstellar matter.
