I was looking through the pictures for early October (it's early November now), and I can really see the blip spirit starting to die back then. The idea of taking a picture every day, whether I wanted to or not, worked well for me for a few months, but it's not a way of life for me. Lately I've settled into a nice routine of setting aside time and filling that time, and carrying a camera the rest of the time in case I see something. My quests, walking off on a break from work to find something to shoot, have died down for now. Maybe they'll be back next summer as a sanity saver.
