Photometric observations of the Seyfert Sextet (VV 115) are analyzed. Apparent integrated magnitudes are derived relative to the sky brightness, and isophotal maps are given for the field. No evidence for interaction between NGC 6027 and d is found. Luminosity profiles are given for NGC 6027, a, b, and d, with the d profile having been corrected for seeing effects in one dimension. The corrected profile parameters favor the interpretation of d as a highly luminous background galaxy at its cosmological distance. The nearby anonymous galaxy 1558.2 + 2100 is similarly studied, with no clear evidence of photometric peculiarities detected. Its interaction with the Seyfert Sextet appears to be excluded.
