Her world is blaring, white hot with confusion. She shields her eyes to make the pain go away. With her arms hanging limply at her sides, she cries 'protect me'.

phenomenal capture here. I agree with the others that there is quite a story and the beauty is that we will never know it and probably there are many different thoughts about what the actually story is. This is a wonderful example of what a fascinating art photography is. Not everyone would have composed it the way you have and that is a big part of the story. This is just great.
I love the image, graphically, for the contrast between the whites and the blacks, but even more for the silent and complicated story it tells us, but the stories can be more than one and we'll never know what is the true one and also in that there is the charm of this picture, its secret...
