Friday Egg: Shen Shui

A new thing! I am injecting dye into the eggs and letting the egg decide how it will look. After a day or so, I drain the dye and cut open the egg and see what happened! I can also do some work by peeling layers of the inner membrane to make the color appear lighter in stripes. I'm really enjoying this, so look for more of these in the near future.
