Photograph YOUR Fears



Your assignment is to capture in a photograph one of your darkest fears. The fear must be an actual psychological fear you possess. 



It cannot be something like "I'm afraid of spiders, so here's a picture of a spider."  



It must be the fear of something psychological, a circumstance or a situation, not just a thing...

"I'm afraid that if I don't get good grades, I'll disappoint my parents."  

"I don't like what they're doing but I'm afraid that if I don't go along with my friends they won't like me."  

"I'm afraid that I won't be remembered after I'm gone."



Your challenge is conveying your fear in a single photographic image. The image can be manipulated in Photoshop (colorized, composited, etc.)




You must include the name of your fear in your image. A good place to start is here:

Some products become obsolete as a result of design/concept flaws (Ex. *Jarts), some become obsolete due to changing tastes and social mores (Ex. Snuff, Corsets), some become obsolete due to technological advancements (Ex. Flip phones), and some become obsolete due to built-in or "planned" failure (Ex. *Light bulbs) Prior to starting the project, you are to research the topic of "planned obsolescence" and answer the following (You should post your answers to
