Lunch in The Park... and other priorities

Real life experiences often make their way into my miniature world, and the subject matter can present quite nicely.  This little vignette was created from a scene I came upon a few years earlier, with a man patiently walking his dog in very close proximity to his lunch that was apparently growing cold while he tended to his dog's business.

The recycle bin, the pigeon, and the Won-ton soup are all spot on; however, I took some liberties.  His jacket was beige, not navy blue, and the bench that I saw was far more worn with faded gray paint.  The dog that the gentleman walked was an odd mix that I had never seen before and I couldn't find the "right" dog, so I have him quietly posed – off to the far right, blending almost seamlessly into the trunk of the enormous tree.
