Abstract
We present the results of CCD photometry of the first gravitational lenssystem QSO 0957+561, obtained on the base of La Palma archive. Usingcross-correlation analysis we have found the time delay between A and Bquasar images to be 430 ± 15 days. Our photometry of QSO 0957+561 A & Bgives additional independent confirmation of the recent results on the time delay about 425 days.
