The authors present blue and red CCD surface photometry of two apparent dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster region. Luminosity profiles are derived and their form discussed. The fainter galaxy resembles an archetypal diffuse dwarf elliptical but the brighter of the pair is either an unusual red dwarf or a background galaxy in chance juxtaposition.
