Domusweb editorial staff selected some images from Daniel Rueda’s Instagram profile, which transmit joy and optimism, encouraging us, as the Monty Python would sing, to look at the bright side of life.

Daniel Rueda began photographing the streets and buildings of Valencia. His aim, simply put, is to tell joyful stories using a single frame, while speaking about the beauty of architecture trough his minimal approach. Architecture really is the main protagonist of his images, in which they hardly appear more than one human. However, although whites and grays are the tones that prevail in his snapshots, the images he creates have little to do with aseptic or boring environments. Those of Daniel Rueda and Anna Devís are photographs that transmit joy and optimism, encouraging us, as the Monty Python would sing, to look at the bright side of life.
