Fourteen months ago adventurous couple Chanel Cartell and Stevo Dirnberger quit their jobs, sold everything they owned and began travelling the world.
14个月前，奈儿卡特和史蒂夫顿波这对爱冒险的爱侣辞了工作、卖了家当，开始周游世界。

Visiting 31 countries to date, the South African couple have encountered plenty of animals during their global journey- some of them very friendly - so they decided to capture these adorable creatures on camera.
这对南非情侣走访了31个国家，一路环球之行遇到了各色各样的小动物，其中有些颇为友爱，于是他们决定用照相机拍下这些可爱的生命。

And it seems that while not every animal is particularly photogenic, on the whole they were all happy enough to get up close and personal, striking poses for the photographers.
尽管似乎也不是各个小动物都特别上镜，但整体而言，小动物都很开心，可以自个儿靠近镜头对摄像师拗造型。

Cartell and Dirnberger explained how they capture their humorous shots: 'We have always been passionate about animal portraiture. In order to get the style of picture we were after, we would use a wide-angle lens and we'd need to get really close to the subjects, which is tricky in itself.
卡特和顿波解释了缘何拍摄了这些幽默的照片：“我们一直对动物肖像摄影热情满怀。为了寻求我们一直追随的风格，我们用了广角镜，而且我们得真的离拍摄对象够近，这本来就够奥妙的。”

'We've photographed highland cows and alpacas in Austria, bunnies and pigs in Sweden, lemurs, crabs and quokkas in Australia, and dogs and cats in nearly every country we've been to we've been to,' they added.
“我们拍摄了奥地利高地的奶牛和羊驼、瑞典的兔子、猪、澳大利亚的狐猴、螃蟹和短尾袋鼠，还有我们去过所有地方的小猫小狗”，他们补充道。
