Dendrophobia
by messerschmitt

Comment:
8 - Nice shot, perspective and toning. Criticism; difficult given the toning, but perhaps being able to see a bit of detail in the bark, etc - not sure though, as the silhouette effect is good. Perhaps wider may have given it a little extra, especially at this size and also for the 'phobia' effect. Up to 8 from 7. edit:changed 7 to 8 at the beginning of comment

Aichmophobia
by manic35

Comment:
6 - Good. Criticism; if the end of the syringe/needle was more dominant, perhaps with less 'squirt' and more of a trickle, likely make this better in my opinion. Perhaps a variation in lighting also and as this is (presumably) a macro, attention to details like the 'fluff', but minor. edit:wording

Anthropophobia
by smyk

Comment:
6 - Good angle/perspective. Criticism; according to 'the list' your title is a fear of people or society, so 'who knows' there. If the tail were able to be incorporated and the 'specks' not on (presumably) the glass, make this even better in my opinion. edit:read your comments, I 'get it' now, but still, you portrayed a person 'in fear'; now if the mouse was cowering, screeching and holding a little broom - different story

Zemmiphobia- Fear of the great mole rat
by ace flyman

Comment:
7 - Good. Criticism; not much, perhaps lighting, trying to reduce the glare, may have made this better in my opinion.

Xylophobia - Fear of Wooden Objects
by Art Roflmao

Comment:
8 - Good. Good composition and poses. Criticism; not much, looks like a bit of gamma issues in the 'plastic person', but may be intentional.

AICHMOPHOBIA — Fear of Needles
by Bear_Music

Comment:
7 - Good. Good use of shallow DOF. Criticism; difficult, perhaps the dark area bottom left 'gone', and being able to 'see' the end of the syringe/needle, would have made this even better in my opinion.

Illyngophobia; Makes Me Dizzy
by fivebales

Comment:
3 - Good potential. Criticism; needs to be bigger (640 width in this case). For added 'effect', especially for this Challenge, a sharper perspective would have helped this in my opinion. Difficult to discern at this size, but focus doesn't seem very sharp.

Doriphobia

Comment:
3 - You're going to be out of luck for those that haven't seen Nemo. Criticism; more attention paid to the 'tags', lighting, angle, and crop, would all have made this even better in my opinion.

Pediophobia - Fear of Dolls
by Shan2112

Comment:
7 - Good. Criticism; wish it were bigger (640).

The Birds! The Birds!
by e301

Comment:
8 - Very good. Criticism; not much, depending what you had to work with, perhaps not cropped so tightly at the top. Toning/b&w is good, but perhaps a little more detail in/on the birds may have given this an extra element, not sure. Maybe, especially for this Challenge, 640 height too, for added 'phobia effect', may have given this even more impact in my opinion, but again, not sure.
