As previously noted (Miller et al. ATel #2183), we detected SN 2009ip, a possible luminous blue variable (LBV; Miller et al. ATel #2183, Berger et al. ATel #2184), at 18.2 mag in an unfiltered observation taken on 2009 Aug 30. This was fainter than its peak a few days earlier (Maza et al. 2009, CBET #1928). In an unfiltered image taken on 2009 Sep 11, the transient had then faded to 20.2 mag, implying that the SN2009ip transient event had ended.
