I doubt if people will contest this = the name “Rags” is synonymous with these = “Perfection. Beauty. Brilliance. Magnificence. Sprawling …. or even ‘Touched By a Holy Deity ’” Rajesh has opened up many doors for many, many people in and out of Flickr.

I doubt if people will contest this = the name “Rags” is synonymous with these = “Perfection. Beauty. Brilliance. Magnificence. Sprawling …. or even ‘Touched By a Holy Deity ’” Rajesh has opened up many doors for many, many people in and out of Flickr. I myself felt touched by a thousand angels when I saw this: “Ragstatic accepted you as a contact too” His photostream is truly one of the best in Flickr, and he is infallible in his eye for the beauty of angles, precision, composition and processing. He is one of the few Holy People in Flickr I adore, praise and leave me constantly dumbfounded by his posts - and for that, I thank him over and over for pushing this standard to highest of levels. Rags, thank you for the wealth of beauty you have shown us, the experience of being your friend is undeniably electrifying ☺

I've been surprised how quickly he replies to emails as I'm assuming he must get thousands of mail everyday asking for tips on Masking or the famous DRI techniques :) Thanks a million Rags for being such an inspiration. So many of us really look up to you because you are the one and only "R A G S T A T I C"!!!

I should have written this ages ago when I first encountered Rajesh's stream. It was love at first sight. Rags has moved from strength to strength at a breathtaking speed. His shots and post processing are in a class of its own and, combined with his wicked sense of humor, a visit here is a real treat. There are plenty of good reasons why almost every single one of his masterpieces have wound up on the front page of Explore lately: They're unique, fun, brilliant, and superbly processed. Thanks, my friend, for making us all want to do better. You're an inspiration.

RAGSTATIC has one of the BEST photostreams on Flickr. If you want to see high quality photographs that will leave you in AWE, this is the place for you. I am always looking forward to what Rajesh will upload next.... and I am never disappointed. His photographs are quality works of art. They are masterpieces that should be hung in galleries around the world. He has the best sense of humor that can be seen in his titles and narratives on each photograph, or in comments he leaves for his Flickr friends. He never fails to put a smile on my face! Rajesh is an all around fabulous guy! I am happy to call him my friend. ♥"

Rags is by far one of the best landscape photographers i've found on fickr. In addition i find his post processing techniques quite particular and unique. Well done, and keep up the excellent work.

It's been long due, so here we are. Rags, as I have known him, has some of the most admirable images on Flickr. His pictures attracted my senses almost immediately after he had changed the presentation of his pictures. His pictures are all well composed, well thought and are generated with long hours of patient processing of each image. This effort brings out the best in all his images and some of the best on the Flickr's Website. His pictures are well worth a second or sometimes a third look into, because one would start to see the finer details of his blending process and the exact color tones he manages to bring forth and it has continued to be a delight to my eyes. Besides these fine qualities of image processing, Rags is a funny fellow with his unquie sense of humor which keeps serious people like me laughing silently sometimes. Please drop by into his photostream and share your thoughts and comments on his outstanding pictures.

I keep telling myself - don't forget to write a testimonial for Rajesh! But every now and then, I am consumed with the amount of work and time replying comments. Well my friend, today I finally manage to do just that. Your techniques are inspirational to me and it drives me to find and try out new approach on processing. I owe a lot of my post processing techniques mostly to 2 persons in Flickr - and one of them is you buddy. Keep on dazzling us with magnificent works my friend and I hope we can meet up again soon! All the best!

What else to say about Rags that hasn't been said already? He is such a sweet and sincere friend, and one who's never far away when you need advice... His photography has the ability to draw you in and once you're in - you'll have difficulty with letting this other dimension go - the dimension of mystery and depth, and indescribable beauty. Thanks for being a friend Rags, and for sharing the beauty of the world as you see it with us here on Flickr - your devoted friend and fan - Taty ;))

One thing special about him is, on each picture he gives a brief of important key points about how his picture was taken and post-processed, where people can follow.

I just had to drop you a note on my sense of awe when looking at your work. Its is without a doubt ethereal. I have been striving to achieve a level of competence for many months and was, for a while, happy that I was getting a handle on things but since Ive seen your beautiful visions I realise just how far I have left to go. If I had a bigger vocabulary Id lavish more praise, because I simply couldnt praise your skills enough. However as it is I can only say youre a lighthouse of talent in an ocean of amateurs. Thanks for sharing .. please continue to do so. Aaron.
