Photographer Chris Cincotta, who runs the Facebook page Humans In Melbourne, took the image outside one of his favourite cafes in Melbourne's Centre Place, Australia.

He told BuzzFeed News he noticed the couple, named Tim and Brendan, as soon as they walked past "in their own little world".

"I always get a feeling when something needs to be taken," Cincotta said. "I chased after them, I said ‘This is who I am, this is what I do, can I take a photo of you guys standing still?’



"I didn’t want them facing me, I wanted them to be any two men or two women. I said, ‘Stand there, you’re going to represent love, and everyone will be moving around you'."



"That’s exactly what love is, it’s about being in a bubble and the world moving around you."
