This is a very nice picture, but as I look at the dull, grey winter day outside, I find it hard to think of "Everwinter" as a fantasy I'd want to have come true! Oh, well! Thank goodness we all have different fantasies!
The colors in this image are rather drab and the lighting rather flat. Both of these could have been corrected in your image editor by altering the contrast and color saturation. I think that the composition would be stronger if there was a clear point of interest for me to look at; as it is it just looks like any other stand of trees.
I do not see how this has taken a fantasy and been portrayed as a reality through photography. It just looks like a picture of a tree line, with an over exposed sky.
I don't know. This seems like shoehorning to fit the challenge. I think if there were less shadow and more sparkle and light eminating from the snow on the trees this scene would appear more magical. This just doesn't stand out for me as an extraordinary view of snow.
