Visual exhaustion? Camera block?

Not sure what to call my recent state, but after a summer of intense photo activity (and not all of the pictures posted yet by any means) I found myself starting September with a feeling that I was exhausted with so much looking. This was particularly unfortunate for my May-time resolution to submit a new picture every day to the Sverige Suede Sweden group. I was doing quite well with that too, up until the middle of August.

I'd thought to pace myself by posting pictures taken and posted to Ipernity in earlier Septembers, but I found to my surprise that I haven't actually posted, or even taken many photos in September in previous years. (At least, not since the Digital Age when I got my first digital camera.)

I wonder if that means I normally get camera block at this time of year? Never thought of it before. I wonder if you've had this experience?

Anyway, after limping along for a while, I decided - rather than risk breaking myself - to take a complete break from using the camera and let my eyes rest. It seems to have helped.

Last week I started an album here (Sweden 365) of all the photos I've posted to the Sverige Suede Sweden group so far (78 at time of writing).
