I sometimes spontaniusly get flashes of light: not images, just a white light. It is than that it seems like I am actually seeing it, much more than when I am imagining something normally, even with my eyes shut.
You could try to focus your visualization right in front of you; where you see with your eyes. For me, that helps me to become more immersed in the imagination. So much sometimes that the imagination seems like an almost as valid world when i open my eyes again. It is often when I focus like this that I get these flashes of light.
I'm also interested in being to see as vividly with my minds eye as with my actual eyes. It would be cool.
