Yes, I see now it's not a cherry tom, it was quite small. I just made a shot in 
my garden of a larger green tomato. It was backlit and although I shot it 
colour using the *ist D I did do it at ISO3200 and I've simulated filtration 
and retained the "natural" image grain. I'm not suggesting it's a work of art 
but I think the greater contrast provides more to look at?
