Sales are down 4 folds, except for Fotolia.
Guinness intake is up 4 folds... no exceptions.
Stock Images production is out of the question for now , except for Fotolia and maybe Veer Marketplace.
Summer's here in Halifax, and I don' t intend to do anything but get out and enjoy the heat and good looking girls in shorts, ha!ha!...
So you won't be shooting the scenery -just enjoying it! ;D

Not really a big slow down, except fot yesterday and today, at "american hours".

But holydays have a role. Why if not July and August have been for me the months with less downloads for years?

Exactly Loop.  Same here. 

Sure, it's easy to say it is a "myth", but it must be one pretty well established in the Collective Unconscious because more people experience slowdown in summer than can be accounted for by simple "ebb and flow".
