I saw the piles of plush toys at Disneyland and the eyes were very scary.
It was very hard to get this close but I had my friends with me for support.

Doesn't fit into challenge topic as no fear is shown

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.

Perhaps you meant "Doraphobia". But these aren't animals. The picture is cute. Doesn't "Try to make the viewer feel the emotion of the fear".

Did you mean - Doraphobia- Fear of fur or skins of animals? Might also fit - Ommetaphobia or Ommatophobia- Fear of eyes. Cute photo, and a touch more DOF would be nice.

Frightening...

The idea isn't bad, but the execution leaves something to be desired. It looks like this was thrown together in a couple of minutes. More purposeful lighting would have really helped here.
