For the past three years, Peter Zelewski has been photographing twins to understand how similar people are and how unique their relationship is.

His question, how identical identical twins are, resulted in the project Like But Not Alike ("The same, but not completely"). For the sake of the pictures, Peter spends a considerable amount of time exploring the streets of London in search of twins.
