A photo of two widowed penguins cuddling together while admiring the Melbourne skyline has provoked an emotional response from people around the world.

Photographer Tobias Baumgaertner snapped the touching moment in St Kilda, a suburb of Melbourne, Australia, in 2019, but only recently shared the images on Instagram.

After the photos were shared on Twitter, too, they swiftly started trending.

鲍姆盖特纳在社交媒体上如此写道：

“During times like this the truly lucky ones are those that can be with the person/people they love most. I captured this moment about a year ago.” 
“在这样的时刻，真正幸运的人是能和自己最爱的人待在一起。我大约在一年前拍下了这一刻。”

“These two Fairy penguins poised upon a rock overlooking the Melbourne skyline were standing there for hours, flipper in flipper, watching the sparkling lights of the skyline and ocean. A volunteer approached me and told me that the white one was an elderly lady who had lost her partner and apparently so did the younger male to the left.”
“这两只神仙企鹅静静地站在一块石头上远眺墨尔本的夜景，它们俩搭着肩，注视着天际线与海上星星点点的灯光，一站就是几个小时。一位志愿者找到我说，那只白色的企鹅是位上了年纪的女士，她失去了伴侣，而左边那只年轻点的雄性企鹅据说也是一样。”

“Since then they meet regularly comforting each other and standing together for hours watching the dancing lights of the nearby city.”
“从那时开始，它们常常见面安慰彼此，站在一起看附近城市星星点点的灯光，一站就是几个小时。”

几天之后，这位摄影师在自己的社交媒体上更新了两只企鹅的新照片以及它们的故事↓↓↓

“The way that these two lovebirds were caring for one another stood out from the entire colony.”
“这对情侣照顾彼此的方式在企鹅群中很显眼。”

“While all the other penguins were sleeping or running around, those two seemed to just stand there and enjoy every second they had together, holding each other in their flippers and talking about penguin stuff.”
“当其他所有的企鹅都在睡觉或者四处闲逛时，这两只似乎就只是静静地站在那里，享受着两人在一起的每分每秒，握着彼此的鳍肢，聊着企鹅之间的事。”

“Pain has brought them together. I guess sometimes you find love when you least expect it. It’s a privilege to truly love someone, paradisiacal when they love you back.”
“伤痛让它们走到了一起。我觉得，有时候爱情就是这样不期而遇。能够真挚地爱着某人是种恩惠，而两情相悦则宛若天堂般美好。”

摄影师这波充满人生感悟与爱的照片和小作文，也感动了评论区的无数网友↓↓↓
