Happy Mother's Day!

Gretchen and the Weber Grill, Oak Park, Illinois, c. 1970 © Ellen Rennard

When I was in high school, already consciously making pictures, I photographed my mom wielding tongs and cigarette (simultaneously) while cooking on the Weber grill on our back patio. She must've been around 36 at the time. I remember lying on our concrete bench to get the funky angle for this image, made with our family's Brownie camera.
