I think you may find that No1 is "Snap" as in call in playing cards, and a rough photo shot!
Bruce, If the clue was "Call a rough picture", your answer would work well. However, you don't seem to take into account the word 'with' in the original clue. 'Dub' with 'a' ( ie the one tucked into the other) definitely takes account of all elements. But what the hey! Toronto...as well as the crossword-setter, of course!..has to decide.
Fair comment Quizmonster, thankyou!
