 I saw faces in the stones. This is one of them.

I used shadow highlight and blending. I even did a bit of a vignette, curving lighter the middle and usming the middle.

i saw the face right away lol so not sure what that says. I thought it was an interesting take on it as that kind of expression is something you might see in a comic book.

Hm, I think you captured the texture of this very well, but it doesn't fit the challenge well to me.

Not sure this shot presents super power, If I didn't read the title, which I do at first, I wont be able to tell what kind of super power it is,
I hope my critique is taken a positive way, all the best.
