Abstract. The lightcurve photometric observations of two main belt asteroids and one Mars crosser asteroid obtained at the NAO Rozhen during several apparitions and various longitudes and phase angles are presented. These lightcurves with the lightcurve inversion method will be used to determine preliminary poles and triaxial ellipsoid models for the observed asteroids.
