this is outside?

Of course it is, you can see a pizza hut ad in the back

That ad doesn't prove it's outside. For all I know it's in a mall.

Its outside of the mall. Don't you see the sun and the persons behind ? And the brick floor clearly means that its outside.

Uhm, nope the brick floor doesn't mean it's outside, and the sun can come down through a glass roof, like malls have.
BUT... if you have ( or can take ) a larger shot which includes a street or the sky and add it in SBS, that would clear doubts.

That's generally how I perceived it too, greymval.

Shame you cropped the tip of the tree
