Ok, even though this is a post challenge comment, I'll comment it as I would during voting.

I really just don't think this fits the challenge. Yes, snow is pure but there just isn't enough of it to convey that message in this photo. Also, I don't think the sepia tone of this image works very well as it makes the snow look very dirty and not pure.

Snow does give a sense of purity, but I don't feel it in this photo.
