  • The story of how a dog in Georgia, who had 24 hours to live, was somehow rescued by a woman 3000 miles away in Los Angeles, their journey together, how it was cut short, and how he was saved again by one very special person, along with her equal-parts-special-supportive-community. But the real story is about how Ransom saves anyone and everyone who crosses his path, every day that he lives.

    A beautiful story. To your point, just take your camera and make something. It wouldn't matter what equipment one had, the story was everything. Great job, thanks.❤

    Wonderful story. I felt connected to it at first because we have a dog that looks like ramson (gurejackito at ig) , and because I made the same promise.. that fortunately didn’t have to fulfil. The 3 of you made a beautiful testament of Sandy’s memory.
    The story was touching, she did a superb job telling the story… and the filming.. hard to believe it was done with an “old’ camera, vintage lenses, and no gimbals, lights, etc. The sound was terrific! And the music.. at first, I wasn’t a fan of it, but in the way the story advances, it captures the moment magnificently.
    Just with that video, you and your friend are leaving behind more legacy than most.
    Definitely, most people should imitate your attitude and start telling the stories of the people around them … great job. Honestly, I mean it.

      Thanks so much for all of this I really appreciate it. It was really fun to just go out with my camera, one lens, and just have some fun. And to document something beautiful. Thanks again for the comment and all of the good energy, I don't take it for granted. Have a beautiful day, and make some art!
