To your points--the main shot is indeed very much a snap. I was sitting in the crowded outdoor cafe, and saw the dog in the chair. No possibility for moving around to get the woman in the picture too, so I just squeezed off two frames, and this one was the better of the two. The "dirt" in the first alternate are birds, and the colour in the second alternate is already less saturated than what I originally saw in PS when I opened the file.
