My (point to self) Bar

As I was walking in a neighborhood about a mile east of the Forbidden City, I came across this bar. I liked that there was a couple on the other side of the window enjoying a drink and conversation. The lights were nice so I took the shot.

I am happy with the picture, but the reason I post it here is to tell you about the man who was so interested in what I was doing. As I set-up my tripod and took the first shot, a gentleman standing nearby came over and wanted to see what I was shooting.

After he saw this picture on my camera back, he smiled a huge proud smile and pointed at the bar and then at himself. He was telling me that it was his bar that I was shooting.
I complimented his bar with a thumbs-up and a smile and moved along into the evening.
