We were looking for rocks depicting and celebrating everything Welsh, with one of the prizes being the use of the photo for the days leading up to, and including St David's Day.
Tali's rock was a simple little sheep with a wonderful little face and swirls of paint to show the fluffy woolly fleece. Less was definitely more for the voters choice this time around.
On behalf of Tali and because he's certainly not old enough to have a Facebook account when the news was posted on our group, he mum wrote:
"I just wanted to say thank you on behalf of Taliesin, and say what an awesome job all the entries did. Happy rock finding peeps."
Of the competition, Tali's mum said:
"I thought it was a great idea and fantastic concept, getting the kids to paint and hide stones. Kids [can] spend too much time on computers and things like this are a great idea.
I will definitly enter him into another competition, it's excellent for the imagination. As a family, we do a lot of arts and crafts."
We would like to thank Tali's mum for the warm welcome and refreshments. We'd also like to thank the famtastic young man for allowing us the use of his 'games room.'
Permission was granted, by mum, for the use of this image of Tali (seen here with one of the co-founders), on the understanding that his face was obscured.

The competition was open to all members of the Facebook Group as well as their family members without a Facebook account. Voting, however, was only open to members, but anyone can join. This time, after a suggestion from another member, we used the Facebook Poll option. We found that, allowing members to vote on their favourite, is the fairest way possible as the results cannot be 'fixed'. The only issue we have, however, is that group polls on Facebook cannot be closed, so we had to take a screengrab of the results after the voting was closed.
