A Rose in Winter



While compiling these examples of the pink of a rose adrift in rooms of white,
 I happened upon this photo.
I don't know what kind of dog this is...but it is Russian and it's name is Axel Snow Rose.
Looks like the Abominable Snowman to me.

A bevy of beautiful rooms. I love pink and have decided little bits go a long way, as these pretty rooms show.
Is it a Russian wolfhound?

Victoria said...

Holy moses, that is a large dog!!! He's like Marmaduke!

Those rose photo's are lovely:) I especially love the one with snow on it.

Are you snowed in today? I hear you are getting more of the white stuff. What are you doing to stay busy?

*giggles* I love the pictures in this post with the lovely rooms "enhancing" the roses....but the gregarious dog makes the whole thing. There is nothing any sweeter than puppy love!!! Thanks for posting the abominable snowman, LOL ;P

this is so special-it reminds me of my bubbie (grandmother). on her gravestone, we have "a rose in december." thanks for putting her in my thoughts today!

Ha! Can you picture that massive dog bounding through the room of white chairs?

House Beautiful arrived in my mailbox today, and guess what color they're flouting? PINK!

What beautiful images with the fun bright pink and I cannot believe the size of Axel Snow Rose! I have never seen a dog that size.
