Hilarious Photos Where the Background Stole the Show

When you’re caught up in the moment, you just instinctively have to grab your phone and snap a photo. Sometimes the first shot isn’t great, so you take another, and another, and another.

But more often than not, we get caught up with the subject of the photo that we forget all about the background before we post it online. And soon enough, you’ll start to get more comments about what’s in the background as opposed to what you’re snapping a photo of.

Some of these photobombers may be negligible – a random face here, a bit of a mess there. But there are times when we wish we had the appropriate Photoshop skills to completely erase the embarrassing background loomers in our photos.

Case in point, these 24 photos where the background ruined (or made, depending on your sense of humor) a photo.
