Ophidiophobia

I would have liked to have the front part of the snake's nose in focus too. With such a narrow DoF a catchlight can really add a lot to the image. The strong shadow under his head is a little distracting, but the DoF works in your favor to make it less important here.

Anatidaephobia - The fear, that some time, somewhere, some how, a duck is watching you...

Wasn't that the caption from a Far Side cartoon? The rubber ducky in the foreground is a nice touch. The girl's pose is a little odd, and it's hard to tell what she's doing. The background is rather distracting, as are the image grain and soft focus. Bonus points for the Larson reference though.

The idea is an interesting one, but the execution feels too fake.

Pediophobia - Fear of Dolls

Nice, sharp capture. The strong lines in the background lead my eyes back to the doll. The doll looks a little bit unnaturally devoid of surface detail, but I suppose that this isn't implausible for a plastic doll; with any other subject this would look over-NeatImaged.

Cute kid, but this feels like a snapshot. The fact that the title is such a stretch to make this seem related to the challenge topic doesn't help. Including the top edge of his shorts helps to remove the implication that he's nude.

The strong shadow behind the bottle and the glare from the flash are distracting. Aside from that I like the image.

Aeroarsonphobia - Fear of breathing fire

Nicely done; the slight misalignment between the source of the flame and the mouth is somewhat distracting. The photo would be more emotive if the model's eyes weren't half closed.

Thantophobia - fear of dying

I like the image, but somehow the fence seems to detract from the image overall. The dead grass along the fence line does a nice job of grounding the tree.

Your image unambiguously defines the named phobia (unlike a lot of the other entries), but somehow the image doesn't strike me as noteworthy. There's nothing wrong with it, it's just not particularly interesting.

The message-bearing portion of this image occupies relatively little area in this image. I think that your composition would get more bang for it's buck if you made the presentation more minimalistic (showing 13 fingers seems excessive). Since the message is less than happy using a darker background would have helped to create the appropriate atmosphere. Showing simply one finger with the blade poised to ram under the fingernail would have been a more concise way to convey the same idea.
