delectable...and ready to eat in just a few days...sliced with a sprinkle of black pepper they are better than smarties..well almost...V

Ready to pick! Mine are still the color of the one in the background, with luck they may ripen this year. I like the detail in this shot and the blue sky behind it all.
Ed McConnell04-Sep-2009 00:27
from your own garden..nice shot and tomato..
Stephanie03-Sep-2009 10:39
This tomato is gorgeous! I see a BLT in it's future at my house. Nicely shot.

Wonderful colors here! Even got the spider web as a bonus.

It rained so much here, mine are still green, but there are a lots of them. tomato plants are the best smelling plants in the world, yes! yes! even better than roses.

Beautiful composition, colors and DOF.
Kevin Chester02-Sep-2009 07:32
Im jealous of your photography and your gardening :-)
Maaike Huizer02-Sep-2009 06:39
Perfect tomato. I wonder how sweet this one tastes.
Hernan E. Enriquez02-Sep-2009 04:38
Beautiful image and WOW, so delicious!
Michael J. Parkinson02-Sep-2009 03:37
This is great. Last summer we learned about eating tomato with mint leaves, truly lovely if you have not tried it.

Perfect image! Nothing like a ripe tomato straight from the garden! V
Yvonne02-Sep-2009 02:17
Fabulous shot, nothing quite like a fresh tomato straight off the vine!
Fay Stout02-Sep-2009 02:10
Love your point of view here with that blue sky in the background...
Cindi Smith02-Sep-2009 00:35

Dennis Warren01-Sep-2009 23:45
Love em. Have some in my salad for lunch everyday.
carol j. phipps01-Sep-2009 23:34
Wow! the beauty of fresh fruit and vegetables growing on the vine.
Mieke WA Minkjan01-Sep-2009 23:10
great capture, hopefully it will catch enough sun to ripe fully
Linda Willets01-Sep-2009 22:45
Yummy, nothing like a tomato fresh from the garden.
Barbara Heide01-Sep-2009 22:40

Jola Dziubinska01-Sep-2009 20:52
So fresh! Nice composition and DOF.
Walter Otto Koenig01-Sep-2009 20:36
Yum, this looks wonderful. Great colors, I like the hint of blue in the background. Nice start to the challenge Doug.
LynnH01-Sep-2009 20:27
Beautiful, looks about ready to pick. Love the bit of web beneath, too!
Johnny JAG01-Sep-2009 20:20
Nice fruit.
J. Scott Coile01-Sep-2009 19:41
Loving the DoF and that blue sky for a background.
Coleen Perilloux Landry01-Sep-2009 19:39
Beautiful. You have it all in here, the beautiful sky, the ripened fruit, the unripened fruit; wonderful colors and perspective.
Mairéad01-Sep-2009 19:30
A beautiful colourful image, with the ripe tomato nicely set off against
the green stalks and blue sky. There's nothing as tasty as a home-grown
tomato.
Dave Perez01-Sep-2009 19:30
Now that's a tomato!! Very nice macro .... Super sharp!
laine01-Sep-2009 17:56
That looks like the Ox Heart variety...good to see the spiders webs, they must be gathering any nasty bugs...this looks delicious, Doug.
Bernard Davis01-Sep-2009 17:47
Nice and red, almost time to get picking.
