Pre-Xerophobia

Comment:
Cute, joyful child doesn't convey any fear. "Try to make the viewer feel the emotion of the fear." isn't done by this or could by by any picture showing wetness. The title doesn't make anything better -- perhaps you could showing him unhappy being dried off with a towel near the sprinkler/fountain? But still wouldn't be a fear.

Potamophobia - Fear of rivers or running water

Comment:
How does a frozen water fall convey the fear of "rivers of running water"? Doesn't for me. Nice waterfall, though!

Photoaugliaphobia

Comment:
Pretty anemic glaring light. I'd have expected a brightly lit scene, perhaps with lots of blown highlights, to show the fear.

Brigitte

Comment:
So is this fear of Brigitte, perhaps Caligynephobia (fear of beautiful women) or Gynophobia (fear of women)? Or maybe Pnigophobia (fear of choking). I really don't know what the phobia is and can't say that it "Try to make the viewer feel the emotion of the fear."

Rhytiphobia- Fear of getting wrinkles.

But she appears to be smiling. Not fearful at all. "Try to make the viewer feel the emotion of the fear."

Light Phobic
by quiet_observation

Comment:
Photophobia, to be precise. But film cannot think and thus cannot fear the light. And nothing in this picture makes me fear light.

Mannequin

Comment:
Fear of mannequins? This picture isn't scary. Now if it were poised to attack, that would be different.

Autodysosmophobia
by jpdeloof

Comment:
You picked a tough one since there is no way to provide a "scratch and sniff" card with your entry. The blue "odor" isn't necessary (since phobias are irrational fears it isn't necessary to have any odor at all) and is distracting. Just surrounding him with the colognes and having him sniff his underarm would have sufficed.

Dendrophobia

Good angle and lighting. This is scary.

Equinophobia/Hippophobia

Comment:
Good angle. Were you trampled after the shot was taken? Looks like motion blur of horse on right, which is effective here. Horse on left is too shadowed and mane blocks the face, which is unfortunate.
