Default To much PP?

Hi.. I've been photographing for about a year with an SLR, I'm trying to get some street photography in my portfolio, I know I'd be better off with a rangefinder, but we work with what we have.. I'm aiming at Robert Doisneau style photos, maybe I'm a long way short but I wouldn't mind some feedback from this photo.. I saw this couple at the Gare de Lyon in Paris the weekend before Xmas, and happened to have my SLR on me.. I had to take them serupticiously because I wanted a natural pose.. However the opportunity only presented itself for long enough to point and push once before they moved, so I needed to do a fair amount of post processing to get the depth of field I wanted.. I had been taking timed shots with movement just before, so the exposure was quite long..

Any critique is welcomed, but really I'd like to know if you feel if I could have done anything better in the PP stage, as at the time I really didn't have the time to compose the picture.

EXIF data: Sony SLT A55V 75mm in Sony 16-80 f3.5-4.5 Zeiss. 1/4 sec at F8 ISO400

Thanks Trish.. Wasn't what I was expecting, but I'll take a complement.

Oh.. And two sugars in the coffee please.
