If we could see what she is looking at it may influence our response. Perspective is what drives opinion. This is a beautiful picture of of a beautiful young lady, in and of itself it portrays a pensive mood. Where it was taken would cause us to think more of the situation.
What was captured was the essence of beauty that is prevalent around the world. Our individual take on the suroundings makes us create opinions based on our own biases. If the world could look at life at face value and recognize beauty for beautie's sake, we would be a very much better place.
To me, this picture captures a moment in time that transcends time and space and reflects what we should all be looking at, beauty for what it is, regardless of colour, race or politics.
