I did that until I got so good at it I found myself on the other side of it where I was slipping into Photo focus when I would otherwise not want to.

I guess you can continue on or you can switch to the 'X' method or you can just turn the pages not worrying about 'any' focus. As I am convinced it does not matter.

I do not blimp any more. I am confident of the underlying principle that you are always recording your entire environment, especially with your eyes, no matter where, or to what your conscious mind is attending upon. But Photoreading is built upon the wildly proved out principle of focused intention and attention.

Your eyes see all things they are exposed to, it is just light. Rest upon that fact and keep mentally clear with mantras.

It is intent that counts and passing over the material with that intent. An old occult maxim is...

"Where your attention goes, so flows your power".

Attention is GOLD, the soul's gold. Just ask your 'partner' <smiles>
