2014 Tomato Pictures

As promised here are some photos of tomatoes in last year's garden, 2014. It's a very pic-heavy blog post, but that's what you're here for anyways right?

Variegated Tomato in a planter with purple petunias.
"Variegated" again, close up of it's amazing foliage.
"Micro-Tom" first fruit ripening, what a wonderful tomato!
First ripened "Micro-Tom" a very nice tangy flavour.
"Starfire Isis" beautiful striping coming down to a single
point at the bottom of each fruit. Flavour was sweet, a very juicy tomato. 
Not sure exactly which tomato this was...
possibly "Golden Tiger" or "Dark Tiger"
from J & L Gardens, Espanola New Mexico.
"Indigo Rose" 
"Dancing with Smurfs" 
"Pastel Sleeves' 
Some cool variegation right onto the fruit of the plant.
Very interesting to watch grow!
...and another view. 
"Japanese Black Trifele"
"Bosque Blue" 
More views of the "Variegated" tomato plant in action. 
Unripened "Painted Pink"
"Muddy Waters" from Tom Wagner Tomato Seeds

Not sure of this variety, again could be an experimental variety from J & L Gardens.
"Zapotec Pleated Pink" Very heavy, dense fruit!
"Lucky Heart"
An Example of how tall indeterminate varieties can get,
this one grew to about 8-9ft.

"Tlacolula" lots of plant growth
to this practically wild type tomato. 
"Striped Roman"

"Indigo Rose" cross section.

"Painted Pink" prepping for consumption.
"First Mate" It's hard to tell from this photo,
but this tomato really has a nice blueist-grey-green skin to it.
"Pastel Sleeves"
"Starfire Isis"
Random tomatoes ripening on the window ledge.

Oven roasted tomato sauce preparations.
Really brings out that tangy delicious flavour perfect for sauces and cooking.
You'll have to excuse the last few photos taken from my cell phone, not sure why I didn't bring out the SLR, but I got the pictures anyways. Trust me - 2015 is an Nikon SLR only year.
"Blonde Boar" and "Zebra Rita" among these varieties.
"Esmeralda Golosina"
"???" but AMAZING. 
"Pineapple Blues" or "Wildcard Blues"
All purple "Blue Beauty" 
They almost look black! 
"Blue Ambrosia" 
"Snow Cherry" next to "Blue Beauty"
