<p>Ep 4: Sweetheart Roller Skating Rink Photography Project 1972-73 with Bill Yates and Bill Boling </p> <p>It was such a pleasure to chat with Bill and Bill about this amazing documentary photography project shot in 1972-73. Bill Yates shares his thoughts on this project below. This book and project is hands down my favorite book to own, and favorite images to post on the Instagram page. The images just resonate so deeply with so many people. There is something raw and universally understanding with the honest, kind, and dynamic images shot by Bill Yates over 7 months from 1972-73.    </p> <p>I had just purchased a medium format, twin lens camera and, as usual, I was out riding around looking for something to shoot. I happened upon an old wooden structure built in the 1930’s in the Six Mile Creek area of rural southern Hillsborough County, Tampa, FL. The sign on the building read &quot;Sweetheart Roller Skating.&quot; The owner was just driving up. &quot;Mind if I shoot some pics?&quot; I asked. &quot;Sure, but if you want some good ones, come back tonight –- this place will be jumpin&#39;.&quot; That weekend in September 1972, I ran eight rolls through the camera. After that I photographed nearly every weekend until late spring of 1973. I was twenty-six years-old - Bill Yates </p> <p> </p> <p>To Learn more about this project go to these links. </p> <p><a href="https://www.sweetheartrollerskatingrink.com/">https://www.sweetheartrollerskatingrink.com</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/bill_yates_photo/">https://www.instagram.com/bill_yates_photo/</a></p> <p><a href="https://falllinepress.com/">https://falllinepress.com</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/wboling">https://www.instagram.com/wboling</a></p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>More info on Vintage Annals Archive</strong></p> <p><strong>Podcast</strong></p> <p><a href="https://www.vintageannalsarchive.com/vintage-annals-archive-podcast.html">https://www.vintageannalsarchive.com/vintage-annals-archive-podcast.html</a></p> <p><strong>Website</strong></p> <p>We have a ton of additional content on our website.</p> <p><a href="https://www.vintageannalsarchive.com/">https://www.vintageannalsarchive.com/</a></p> <p><strong>Please Support</strong></p> <p>If you&#39;d like to support this project please join our Patreon.
