Welcome to the #GooglyPrize

Staggering amounts of entries have been made to the contest in the past few weeks. I appreciate them all and it's a pleasure to meet so many new Googlies from all over the world.

It's surprising to see how this silly contest has been able to sharpen my awareness about the serious issues our world is struggeling with. And it feels good to know this show can contribute maybe just a little smile to the lives of so many people

But don't forget the spirit of this contest, it is about creativity and expression through #GooglyEyes!

If you want to win this show, you have to put some soul in it!

Now without further ado:

^{How does the delegation pool work? [Read here!]}

I had trouble deciding for just three winners and the prize pool still holds some generous reserves. I will pick two winners per level yet again!

@abreulareina with

I know we can't see much here, but that's the whole point. @abreulareina has captured these eyes in darkness to express a dire truth in a poetic way. Go read this post.

@marpa with
"Googlyeyes trabajando"

Ok, I am a sucker for GIFs. That's all I have to say! If you want to see the GIF, too, go check out this post!

🥈 The 2nd winners are: 🥈

@ragnar29 with
"Guardián Nariz"

I am really glad to see a new Venezuelan fellow Googlyista taking the eyes outside into a public area. That's how it's done! Congrats @ragnar29.

and:

@tillygerbi with
"Rambo rainpipe"

Because taking those eyes outside and having fun searching for a face, that's the main idea behind this contest. And sometimes it even includes funny random interactions. Read @tillygerbi's post to learn what that's all about.

🥇 And Our Grand Winners are: 🥇

@samic with
"Mitch Buchannon"

Well, @samic really know how to rock this contest (smirk). Not only is this an awesome looking Googly, no, she also shows us a wonderful spot by the river and tells us a totally quirky story. Rock on @samic!

and:

@davor27 with
"Who is hiding?"

Last but not least, we have @davor27's entry. This one comes with no gimmicks... Just a classic awesome #eyebombing example!
