Abstract

We present V and I photometry of a 9.4'x9.4' field centered on the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Leo I. The I magnitude of the tip of the Red Giant Branch is robustly estimated from two different datasets I^TRGB^=17.97 (^+0.05^_-0.03_). From this estimate, adopting [M/H]~-1.2 from the comparison of RGB stars with Galactic templates, we obtain a distance modulus (m-M)_0=22.02+/-0.13, corresponding to a distance D=254^+16^_-19_kpc.
