AwesomeWM and scrot keybind [SOLVED]

Question

My keybind is:
awful.key({"Mod1"}, "Print", function() awful.util.spawn("scrot-select") end)
where scrot-select is this script:
#!/bin/sh
scrot -s 'screenshot-%s.png' -e 'mv $f ~/images/ && gimp ~/images/$f'
This does not work. But if I launch scrot-select from a terminal then it does work. I have a different keybind that just screenshots the entire screen and that works fine. Something about the -s flag is problematic.
Solution, put a sleep 1s before the scrot command:

Answer 1

using the -s flag doesn't work for me, either.
and it should be a comma after "Mod1",  i don't know why but without it the keybinding doesn't work
