Having presumably tired of sexting and Skyping, Korean couple Danbi Shin and Seok Li found a new way to connect through their photography.

Based in New York and Seoul respectively, they started a project called ‘Half&Half’, that sees them up line up their views of the cities symmetrically.

The results show the pair’s bond, the differences between their environments, and in some cases the similarities in them and their daily lives.

Okay, it’s not exactly a substitute for sex, but still quite touching all the same.

You can see more on their Instagram.
