"Rajen
Nair is one of India's most perceptive and sensitive photographers.
Whether he focuses on Rajasthan architecture, fishermen and their
nets along the southern Indian shores, or breathtaking panoramas,
Rajen is an eagle-eyed guide to the beauty and mystery of the
subcontinent”

''Rajen Nair's work is amazing; his work touches your soul, touches your mind but mostly makes you think. A photojournalist with an eye for beauty, I always enjoy looking at this very talented artist's work. Bravo!''

''Rajen Nair's images do not tell a story. They are the story. Whether it is the jade beauty of Kerala or the poor pottering away at Dharavi, Rajen Nair's camera gives you the experience of immediacy. His camera is good at transporting you right into the frame, into the field of action. His is an eye that misses little.''
C P Surendran,

Ex-editor of The Times of India,
Dy Editor of 'OPEN' magazine
"Rajen Nair's simple and sincere style touches our humanity and brings our worlds - whether that be the hearing or deaf world, India or the United States - closer together."
Donna Schillinger,
Editor-in-Chief, Hearing Health magazine, USA
''I
feel the good impression from Rajen Nair's pictures, that has not
only "Beautiful and Sharper images" but also "Deep thinking" to his
homeland.''
