Cherry Tomato Woes

My Sweet 100s are looking a little peeked. Anyone have any ideas about what's up?

Tomato Blight?

Under watering?

Aphids?

    Don't recognize it - here's a website that mentions gray spots, but you may have different symptoms not obvious in the photo.

    I think it is Early Blight, a fungus that is certainly not helped by overwatering. I'm watering my garden via sprinkler this summer (I've always done drip hoses in the past) and I also planted my tomatoes fairly close together.

    All these add up to conducive growth for fungus, I'm afraid. I've plucked the leaves and sprayed with an organic fungicide.
