Being able to take good pictures is one thing,
however the ability sense a moment and capture it [also create & capture it], is the mark of an artist.

What a photographer presents can always be looked at literally, and figuratively - expressing something of who the artist is. 
His landscapes show an obvious liking of nature and the traditional standards. The beauty of light, the bittersweet sense of gathering storm clouds over an open field.

However, there is a measure of loneliness in some of his landscapes; no people or animals, only an eerie stillness that becomes slightly disturbing.

Kaizer's portraits sometimes exude a playful shyness, something hidden, a curiosity through the eyes of the subject. Though there faces are only half visible, there's a sensual and dangerous quality.

With two of them only one eye is visible; does the artist see them as scared, that women are scared? Their "all-seeing-eye", "eye of providence", seeks out all there is. 
She sees you...even though she is hidden.
