I haven't intentionally tried to have lucid dreams, but I occasionally have them anyway. Usually there's a feeling of "slipperiness" to it, a knowledge that if I'm not very careful, I'll fall out of the dream. Sometimes that literally means falling out of it - I'll start to go through the ground and have managed to stay in by hopping back up repeatedly. Usually when I feel myself slipping out I feel that doing something that lets the dream mechanism keep grinding along will help - interacting with people for example. Also the dream world somehow feels like a movie set, as if it was only partially constructed and a lot of it just wasn't there to be seen. Detail isn't really an issue in my experience. On a few occasions I've experimented with paying very close attention to reflections and things like water droplets. i found them not just remarkably realistic, but hyperreal, with much more detail than I think actually exists in the real world. I'm also not sure how to tell the difference between a dream where I dream I'm lucid and an actual lucid dream. There's a definite feeling of being aware that I don't get in regular dreams, but maybe that's just part of the dream!
