I assume you resigned? I think you could have drawn by simply placing your king on f3 and creating a blockade and just moving your bishop around to get a draw. He has the passed pawn, I don't see how you could have won the endgame. I might be wrong though. :-p Nice game though.

 Ooops :-p

 

In that case turn everything upside down, he was lucky that his opponent didn't see the draw he had and lost instead. Also trading the light square bishops was bad because it left him with the bad bishop while his opponent had the good bishop.
