Abstract
We have carried out CCD photometry in the Cousins B and R bands of 15 galax ies in the Canes Venatici I cloud. Total magnitudes, effective radii, effec tive surface brightnesses, as well as galaxy radii at various isophotal lev els in both colors were determined. Best-fitting exponential parameters and color gradients are also given for these galaxies. The photometric paramet ers presented here will be analyzed in a forthcoming paper, together with p reviously published data for nearby dwarf galaxies.
