I think you pretty much captured Fluttershy's uncanny knack for animals here, riding a bear's back in a misty forest. That definitely helps avoid some humanizations missing the mark by not 'feeling' like their original pony counterpart. The only thing that feels kinda missing to me, is that there could probably be more animals as I usually see her totally surrounded by them.

It's even more mystical seeing actual wings on a person. The white dots put all over the place, while kinda senseless, does seem to make this place more mystical the more you think about them. I like how you included downed trees just like how they should be all over the place in real forests (iirc). The downed trees could probably be more convincing if we go the extra mile to add some moss and add a bit more rot to them though.

One thing I would be wary of though, the shading on the arm and leg for example is done in a way so it's darker around the edges. This short of shading suggests a light source from the viewer and is not always most correct even with a frontal light source. If only one edge was darkened, we could have more convincing shading.

I have no idea if other people feel the same, but I feel as though the anatomy can be more convincing. You're probably better at this than I am at this point in time, but I feel that size of Fluttershy's face is a bit larger than what I usually see. The toes seem to align in a straight line but looking at my own toes, the ends form a curve. The fingers also seems odd as I'm seeing a ring finger longer than the middle, and the index bent unnaturally.

The way you do fur is more convincing than what I manage to get on my own first tries, though interestingly, it's not much different from how I give my own hairs some texture even at the time I tried it myself.

At a glance, this piece is pretty much on to something regarding the setting and the subjects used. Just a bit more with more convincing shading among, maybe possibly another approach to coloring to make Fluttershy stand out even more, and you're golden.
