Darren, I'm so glad you asked for photos because, once again, I found how inattentive I am! Holy cow, I forgot to mention Black Early, which is also a 'purple' and lo behold the pictures show it also has the red center that indicates a dominant Gf gene... my F1 crosses last year may be wierder than I think....
Not sure how many pix can load in one post so I will spread em out a bit. Feel free to crop or tweak any way you like if you want to use em for your blog. Sorry most are not singles, and some have white background, some black. Such as they are... use them as you will.
The first photo shows black cherry against a background of red and yellows, which shows the purple colour well.
The second photo is a plate with Black Early (fore) and Black Russian (aft) together. Black Early looks a bit pinker than black here due to the white plate.
