 Although inaninmate objects can be the personification of human qualities or evoke human feelings, likewise, animals can be endowed with anthropomorphic characteristics; ie, snakes can symbolize evil to some and bats symbolize evil to others. The spider has been a fearsome creature to many people, so here is my interpretation of the personification of fear.

Not as such afraid of spiders but I know a few people who are and for them this would be the perfect personification of fear.

Eww! Creepy. Not that "I" want to see it but it might be better if the whole spider was in the frame. (gulp)...Nice detail!

I think you overdid it with the dark look.

I don't know the rules on editing but I think you violated them.
And I don't see the personification. The photo itself is nice interesting but
doesn't fit in here

Great imagery and the tongue or whatever is on the right bottom is very fascinating.
