There is even simpler, closely related example:
thermal Doppler broadening of atomic absorption lines.

Atoms have well defined transition energies, related to very narrow
range of absorbed wavelength, with the width defined mostly
by uncertainty principle.

But their thermal motion causes Doppler effect.

The consequence is, an atom approaching the light source absorbs
a photon with energy lower than the nominal one for atomic transition.
OTOH, an atom departing from the light source absorbs a photon
with energy higher then nominal one for the atomic transition.

This causes absorption line to be broadened to a shape very similar
to Gaussian peak, widening with temperature.

AND NOW : In the frame of the static light source,
an approaching atom tops the energy deficit of lower-energy-than-needed
photon by its kinetic energy.
OTOH, a departing atom uses the extra energy
of higher-energy-than-needed photon to increase its own kinetic energy.

WHILE  In the frame of the static absorbing atom,
For the approaching atom from above, the light source is approaching.
The lower-energy-than-needed photon observed in the first frame
has in this frame the needed energy, as it is blue-shifted.

OTOH, For the departing atom from above, the light source is departing.
The higher-energy-than-needed photon observed in the first frame
has in this frame the needed energy, as it is red-shifted.
