'Your mouth stinks!' This photo taken in Chinatown is all about perfect timing

Sometimes, taking the perfect shot is all about being at the right place at the right time more than having exceptional skills or equipment.

Stomper Lau Lup captured these photos near High Street Centre in Chinatown yesterday afternoon (Apr 28) that prove to be very good examples.

The images show a construction worker, who had one hand in front of his nose, walking past a mural of a woman in shades.

The worker happened to be standing directly in front of the painted woman's mouth when Lau Lup took the pictures, making it look as if that the man was covering his nose due to her 'bad breath'.

Lau Lup said, "I was on Bus 147 when this happened.

"There is construction going on in the area so they tried to beautify the place with the mural."

He also jokingly quipped, "Wah lao! Your mouth stinks!"
