Abstract: We present deep optical photometry of two nearby elliptical galaxies, NGC 4473 and NGC 4697, obtained with a new 1.4m Milanković telescope, mounted at the Astronomical Station Vidojevica (Serbia). For both galaxies we derive surface brightness profiles up to 7 and 3 effective radii, respectively (limited solely by our field of view) to obtain deep color (B-V) gradients. Also, we perform 2D decomposition of galaxy images into Sersic components.
