This is no fancy restaurant but a neighborhood Beijing dumpling eatery. I took this photo just a few hours ago while I had (late) lunch there. Of course the red Chinese paper cutting art is beautiful, but I think the colorful menu posters contribute to a great composition. By the way, the dumplings are good!

I love dumplings, that’s true they’re delicious. This is a very nice picture, especially with the lighting over the menu posters.

After all I hope they had a good meal and a great time together.
The shot looks very cosy. Thanx for sharing.

To everybody, I thought about taking this photo before these two people came in, then I would probably have shot it a bit sideway to avoid the light directly. Well, they came in, took the table so they are in!
