Tell Tale Heart Picture Amelia

I like this photo because it shows, not just tells, the eerie like quality of the eye. The narrator is driven insane by the eye, thinking it is all-seeing, a separate entity from the man himself. He believes the eye has powers unlike anything else. His "blood ran cold", it looked like a "vulture eye", and he always referred to it as the "Evil Eye" (Poe 121). The eye could see what a normal eye could not; he felt like the eye could see within him, see his mistakes and sins.
