Alex,

I think its very interesting what you say here about self talk and I think this could be a cause of me occasionally experiencing misinterpretation when photo reading – quite simply because I’ve labelled myself as doing so.

Interestingly, on the occasions that I have experienced misinterpretation, I’ve had a niggling feeling that something wasn’t quite right, the kind of feeling you get if you leave your house and have forgotten to switch something off; like you say, the non-conscious mind prompting to go back.

Thanks for your advice!

Mark.
