| Dear Chris you will be happy when you will know that in chiroli there are 4 cubs aged 4 months old that have just been sighted for the first time. The tigress in your chiroli portrait is the mother. You have some wonderful pictures from your last trip and I hope to see you back here soon. |
|
| Rose Corcoran, London, England, 23rd April 2001 |
| The photographs are fantastic, they have brought back all the memories from those last amazing days. Machali looks as beautiful as she really is |
|
| Yvonna, International Year of the Tiger Foundation, Vancouver, Canada, 24th April |
| Your new website is marvellous and so inspiring. Keep up the great work. |
|
| Rahul Vyas, Ranthambhore, India, 27th April 2001 |
| Your photographs and knowledge are marvellous Chris. You will be glad to know that the tiger Bumbu Ram which was not seen for a long time and was thought to be killed by poachers has been seen again in Bakola.

| Sarah de Costobadie, Stoke-on-Trent, England, 27th April 2001 |
| Wow! What can I say? Congradulations because it must have required incredible patience to take the shots you have shown. I dream of going to Ranthambhore one day so am extremely interested to see all this. I was particularly impressed by the classic portrait , what a split-second oppurtunity you must have had to grab to capture that. Well done!
|
|
| Bryan Angelinetta, Chippenham, England, 30th April 2001 |
| Chris, new site looks great. The pictures are every bit as good as I expected, the male stalking the sambar was a marvellous moment. It should be the law that everyone visits Ranthambhore at least once in their lives and experiences Nafis at work. Fantastic. |
|
| Nafis Mohammed, Ranthambhore, India, 1st May 2001 |
| I'm really very grateful for you mentioning my details on your website. Its is excellent and everyone here is appreciating, I am very happy, thank you.
|
|
| Venetia Lang, London, England, 2nd May 2001 |
| The site looks amazing. I especially loved the pages on Nafis and Machali, you even put his sayings on it..classic!! |
|
| Sophie Napier, Ardea, London, England, 11th May 2001 |
| Chris, Its a lovely site. We are all very impressed. It was nice to see a picture of you, now we can imagine you at work in the depths of the Indian jungles. |
|
| Prema Naraynen, India, 28th May 2001 |
| A very interesting site Chris. You have a wonderful vocation! I wish you good luck on your trip to Ranthambhore. Why don't you also try looking for tigers in the denser forests of India... the tigers here are deeper in colour and very much more reclusive. Seeing a tiger in dense green forests should be a breathtaking experience.
|
|
| S Park, Utah, USA, 31st May 2001 |
| Hiya! I was wowed by your pictures. I've been hunting around on the net for ages looking for some really good tiger photos to give me a reference for a picture I'm drawing, and I turned up a few perfect ones at your site. Thank you!
|
|
| John Steggles, UK, 8th June 2001 |
| I chanced upon your site one day, and was very impressed, not only by the photographs, but also by your dedication. You seem to have already achieved an ambition that many never reach - to make their hobby their work. The combination shines through in it's quality. Congratulations! I will be following your progress on your website with great interest, and wish you all success in your endeavours.

|
| Adam Hejnowisz, Staffordshire, England, 15th June 2001 |

|
|
| Dave Berkley, Ormskirk, England, 30th January 2002 |
| I dig the pictures, they are really exceptional! How did you manage to avoid being eaten though? I'm envious of what your doing with your photography. It sounds like a super life.
|
|
| Katherine Beard, Gloucestershire, England, 5th Febuary 2002 |

|
|
| Glenn Malvern, Durham, England, 6th Febuary 2002 |
| Love the site. Some friends and I went looking for tigers at Ranthambhore one day last month but to no avail. The possibility was always there though and that in itself was magical!
|
|
| LT, North Carolina, USA, 6th Febuary 2002 |
| Hey Chris, I loved your pictures. I would love to one day visit Ranthambhore and catch a glimpse of one of these majestic creatures.
|
|
| Lucas Plummer, Melbourne, Australia, 9th Febuary 2002 |
| Chris, Your work is amazing. I now can really appreciate the talent and commitment you have. Your images from Ranthambhore are inspiring! I've just started work as a graduate primary school teacher and will be using your site in our unit using computers and the internet. Thanks for the great material and resource. Good luck with your snaps underwater and how about some Flinders action! Lucas.... |
|
| Heather Demars, Oklahoma, USA, 13th Febuary 2002 |

|
|
| Saren Starbridge, Australia, 25th March 2002 |
| Lovely pictures, but also, lots of affinity for and interest in the subjects come through in the writing. Wonder how you'll feel about sharks?
|
|
| Connor A Tiggerus, Wisconsin, USA, 4th April 2002 |
| Thank you for the beautiful and inspiring photographs. I wish I could be your camera, seeing what you see, experiencing what you experience. One day I hope to make it to Ranthambhore, but I'm afraid if I do, I won't want to leave. Good luck and keep on clicking.
|
|
| Daniel Bergstrom, St Albans, England, 15th May 2002 |
| I spent the millenium New Year in Royal Bardia National Park , last New Year in Chitwan National Park and now, after seeing your website and being inspired by your work, I plan to spend this New Year in Ranthambhore.
|
|
| B.J Bayne, Atlanta, USA, 1st June 2002 |

|

| I've been fascinated by tigers since as long as I can remember and I found your site today and thought it was wonderful. |
|
| Kathy, South Carolina, USA, 5th July 2002 |
| I loved your photography on tigers. I once was able to tend a tiger in a zoo for a summer but know that I will never see one in the wild. I only hope that by the time my grandchildren come along, tigers will still exist in the wild and are not just an old fading photograph in a journal. |
|
| Stuart Ling, Suffolk, England, 11th July 2002 |
| Your site is excellent Chris. My wife Sue and I were fortunate to have the sevices of Nafis in Ranthambore during Oct 2001 and we had stunning views of Machali and her two cubs - a truly memorable experience. Your pictures are a great reminder of a brilliant day. I cannot recommend Nafis highly enough to anyone who is planning a trip.
|
|
| Michelle, Florida, USA, 14th July 2002 |
| Ever since I can remember I have wanted to work with tigers. I'm still not sure how exactly I can, however, your pictures are wonderful and inspiring. I was amazed by what you've accomplished and it's my wish to do the same and help protect these magnificent creatures!
|
|
| Michelle, Florida, USA, 14th July 2002 |
| I loved your site. tigers are my life! I'm only 14 but already I know I want to help and work with them. They are such amazing and beautiul animals! Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and pictures. They have inspired me even more to want to be with tigers! |
|
| Angela Riedel, California, USA, 2nd August 2002 |
| Thank you for these incredibly beautiful photographs. Seeing tigers in the wild where they belong must be breath-taking. I envy you the chance to see these beautiful creatures so closely. Keep up the wonderful work. |
|
| Julie, Milton Keynes, England, 10th August 2002 |
| Think of lions and immediately strength and nobility spring to mind. Think of tigers and there are no words, just feelings. We are two of a kind. |
|
| Jessica Brand, Alabama, USA, 8th September 2002 |

| Petre Grier, England, 11th September 2002 |
| I think you are a very good photographer of tigers. I am a great fan of tigers and when I get older i want to be a person that looks after tigers to stop them getting hurt or killed for medicine, food or clothes. So now I am going to study really hard to pass my exams to look after tigers.
|
|
| Heather Demars, Oklahoma, USA, 25th September 2002 |
| Hi Chris, I've just been stationed to join the army in Africa were I hope I can focus a lot more on my wildlife photography. You are my favourite photographer......keep up the great work!

|
| Aline Dobbie, Biggar, Scotland, December 12, 2003 |
| Chris, I've just received your book and absolutely love it. I was in Ranthambhore last November, as well as Bandhavgarh, Kanha and Corbett. The book is a gift for my mum who, along with my late father, knew Jim Corbett. Mum actually met a tiger on foot on a jungle path in 1946, just before I was born. |
|
| Scott Brunskill, Australia, February 11, 2004 |
| Truly inspiring site. You do the name proud Chris. My appreciation of big cats in thier natural habitat is an endless pleasure and your work reflects it all. My desire is to now travel to Ranthambhore. Keep up the great work mate. |
|
| Marcus Karlsen, Norway, May 11, 2004 |
| Hi Chris, I really enjoyed looking at your web site and your book about the tigers in Ranthambhore. You got some very good tiger pictures. It was inspiring reading before our trip to Bandhavgarh and India. As you said, photographing tigers is addictive and I am already planning a new trip to India. I hope to see some of your pictures from your last trip to Ranthambhore on this site soon. Good luck with your new book project. Let me know when it is finished and I will buy one copy. |
|
| Abhishek Behl, The Durrell Institute of Conservation & Ecology, August 3, 2004 |
| Dear Chris. Heard lots about your book and the website from Dicky at Ranthambhore Bagh and you have wonderful pictures. Even I was in Ranthambhore for my research looking at local community benefits from UK travel operators and conservation orgainsations at Ranthambhore National Park. Great work. Great website. |
|
| John Brunskill, California, August 20, 2004 |
| Pictures are great. How interesting that I stumble upon a distant relative who shares that interest. Nothing spectacular here, merely Buff Puff my housecat; bobcats and the occasional mountain lion drop in to say hello every now and then. Such is life in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. Brother Bradley is a veterinarian and has a greater depth of knowledge and understanding of the critters that walk this earth than he is willing to admit. You inspire me to set up my video camera to watch over the lake. Good luck and good hunting. |
|
| Julie Scollary, Australia, 12th September 2004 |

| Jo Crawford, East Sussex, UK, October 16, 2004 |
| Just back from Ranthambore 05/9/04 to 08/10/04 having had 3 great sightings - one of which was Machali , only 10 ft away and rolling around like a beautiful kitten! Spine chilling when we made eye contact but what a priveledge. Counting the days until I can return to again catch a glimpse of that "fearful symmetry". |
|
| Krista, Aughton/Bickerstaffe, UK, October 18, 2004 |

| Alex Livingston, Aughton, December 12, 2004 |
| Chris, although you are a good friend of mine and I have seen your work at close hand for many years, when I look at this website it really does show the range and depth of your talent and intelligence, keep educating people to what you have seen and continue to inspire people, as you are clearly doing so from the feedback in your guest book from around the world clearly shows. |
|
| John de la Bruyère Vincent, Borup, Denmark, December 27, 2004 |
| Hi Chris, a few weeks ago I saw a broadcast by Animal Planet, from Ranthambhore, where Sita and her cubs lived, I love tigers. I ordered your book, and what a book, it touched something deep inside me, amazing, wonderful! |

|
| Irene, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, January 12, 2005 |
| Phenomenal and exquisite work. I was wondering if you have a gallery in London? I'm planning a trip to London in March this year. I'd love to come and see more of your work. good job, keep it up! |
|
| Walter Berrios, Peru, February 5, 2005 |
| Impressive new galleries indeed! Gives me great ideas to make steel sculptures of wild fauna in danger of extinction. |
|
| Laura, England, February 24, 2005 |
| I cant believe you got to go cage diving with great whites!!!carcharadon carcharias!! I am as yet only 19 so I still have scope to do it but sonner rather than later I hope. It must have been fantastic! I hope to become an ichthyologist, with great whites as my speciality, as it were.Your photos are amazing, FANTASTIC! |
|
| Tim Pigott, Liverpool, March 14, 2005 |

|
| Dominique, Chippenham, Wiltshire, May 18, 2005 |
| The site is amazing and these tigers are so beautiful. Excellent! |
|
| Michael Kaymer, Germany, May 21, 2005 |
| Congratulations on your fantastic shots of Machali and her third litter. I have been to Ranthambhore four times now and have also seen all three litters. This year I left Ranthambhore on April 13th. On the last morning I saw Machali with the cubs, but not as close as you. The nearest distance between our car and the tigers was 20 m and the cubs always were in the bushes. In 17 days I was fortunate enough to observe 9 different tigers! I didn`t see the tigress with the two ten months old cubs though.......best of luck on your next trip to Ranthambhore. |
|
| The McCann Family, Co.Armagh, Ireland, May 26, 2005 |
| Having just returned from Ranthambhore NP I was delighted to receive Tiger Forest. Excellent photographs both in the book and on the website - definitely making me want to return again in the near future. |

| The sight has developed very well. Great going! |
|
| Roy Fallon, Manchester, England, 6th September 2005 |
| You have a fantastic site! My daughter and I lived out my life long dream last year and visited Ranthambhore. We are going back there for 3 weeks in February next year. After going through your amazing website, February seems such a long, long way away now. We stayed at the Ranthambhore Bagh when we went there and I would recommend the place to any visitors. Aditya, the owner, is an excellent guy and his tiger knowledge is top quality. Worst thing about the place is getting up for the early morning safari after you have been talking tigers with Aditya until the early hours! Just being in wild tiger country is enough reward for the effort, seeing a tiger up close is an emotion that is without description. Most other things in life becomes third rate to such an experience. Thanks very much for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. Please keep up the great work.
