Photograph something in such a way that it conveys your one of your personal phobias to the viewer. Make the viewer feel the emotion of your fear.

Great idea :)

Yeah, I'd like to see someone photograph Achluophobia (fear of darkness).
By the way, a nice list of phobia can be found here.
Edit: Phobophobia - Fear of phobias. lol

This one cracks me up!!!! I can see the picture now...:)
Autodysomophobia- Fear of one that has a vile odor.

Good idea.

I'm doing Fear of the Update Button (or rather, what comes afterwards)

I did something similar in the Dreams and Nightmares challenge.

My entry was titled "Falling". I tried to show a fear of heights and falling. I zoomed the lens in manual mode while using the continuous shot mode. The web version is ok but the original image is much better :)

What if you have no fears ?

Then you do a challenge entry called "lying to yourself."

what an excellent suggestion! Thanks for adding a concise description of the challenge too.
12/30/2004 07:22:49 PM · #15
Great idea :)

I'd just have to do:

Anatidaephobia: The fear that somewhere, somehow, a duck is watching you
12/30/2004 07:44:26 PM · #16
Certainly leaves enough room for interpretation - there seems to be a phobia for just about everything under the sun!

Maybe the descriptions could be modified to ... it conveys "a phobia" instead of "one of your personal phobias".

Would that be better?

I also think it should be an advanced editing challenge.

Cool idea Gatorguy. Would be fun to try this one.
