Great Expectations Photo Post

How does this NOT relate to great expectations? I mean come on, you would have to be a blundering fool, or an "uncouth booby" in Charles Dickian, to not see the connections blatantly displayed on the computer screen right now.
It plays into the whole theme of how Pip is told what he is to do from the very beginning of the book, and never strays from his path, especially upon receiving his expectations. He only starts to wish against his path and attempt to deviate once Magwitch enters the scene. He causes Pip to question his destiny, and to wish he had listened to Biddy and Joe, his real teachers.
