Heh... OK.
Restore rock to probable original proportions---
Roughly:
Lasso along double-stamp lines, copy paste to new layer.
Move to probable original positions (multiple pieces)
Lasso remaining extra rock in original layer
Fill with sky color
Stamp, patch, heal, blur- to blend with original sky.

To Make Abe:
Lasso, paste, free transform (rotate nose) lasso, burn shadows, burn midtones, lasso, dodge highlights, stamp.

Combine with years of P-shop and a sculptor's sensibilities ...
And presto- Abe Lincoln- 10 minutes. Easy. ;-)
