karaflazz: Nice! ( 5 years and 3396 days ago )

jeaniblog: So many phobias to choose from!! ( 5 years and 3396 days ago )

EmiK: Some of the phobias are not kid friendly, we should keep our younger members in mind. ( 5 years and 3396 days ago )

Kare: So do we need a shot of a spider, or someone scared of the spider ? ( 5 years and 3396 days ago )

EmiK: It has to represent a phobia, so I think a spider, but you can probably also add a very scared person. ( 5 years and 3396 days ago )

jawshoewhah: This contest could apply to just about any image. There's a phobia for everything. ( 5 years and 3396 days ago )

EmiK: Yes but it would be nice if we could get the name of the phobia, so check first if there is one = ) ( 5 years and 3396 days ago )

kyricom: a lot of entries so far do not show a phobia so much as the object of a phobia. For example, if I have a phobia regarding blue eyed hyenas, and I show a picture of a blue eyed hyena - I am just showing a picture of a hyena, not anything showing a fear ( 5 years and 3394 days ago )

friiskiwi: Just about anything seems to be on theme, great, we can judge purly on the photographic value. ( 5 years and 3394 days ago )

adeincyprus: that's an interesting concept Friis!.......it'll be a first here........lol ( 5 years and 3393 days ago )

EmiK: What ever the phobia you pick, just do the best picture of it you can. Yes it's a pretty open challenge, but you still have to submit a good picture, plus we all get to learn something. Oh and we are suppose to have fun - right? ( 5 years and 3393 days ago )

FallingHorse: Can't believe there wasn't a single clown in here..... hate clowns

I used a snow setting on my camera for this shot, and then I adjusted brightness and contrast a bit.
