I just had my longest Lucid Dream yet last night, it was probably in the area of 10-15 minutes. My problem is with the vividness, and the clarity of the dream. There were times when it was pretty clear, but throughout the dream it kept fading and getting kind of murky, and at one point I completely lost all vision for about 1-2 minutes. I tried focusing on my hands, and also shouting "Clarity Now!" but neither of these really helped. It's not that I lost lucidity, but it just seemed like the "dimmer switch" of my mind was turned on low, which is in stark contrast with stories I hear about people who have lucid dreams that are hundreds of times more vivid and real than their normal waking reality.

Any comments, recommendations, or suggestions are appreciated.
