Cool! Methinks you need to put a picture of a chicken on one though. Think of the implications.

No, you can't put a chicken, because which would come first???

Very inventive. Wish I'd thought of it...

Very neat! If the negative was of a stretchy material it could conform to the egg. I just can't think of a material that would work- but maybe it will come to me.

The rooster.....?

On topic: how about a thick layer of collodion or similar, with liquid emulsion on that for projection printing. Then peel off the layer and use it for a negative at the cyanotype stage. This would even take care of the geometric distortion!
