Alt Method to Remove Single Post Featured Img link to Img

Hello!
Inside single post view (Single Author, Big Featured) I am trying to disable the featured image overlay, and the link it has that points to its image location.
I’ve found this thread here that had some CSS code that sort of helped me out:

The trouble is, it behaves a little oddly. Not like a normal image still.
Really, I am concerned because browser Pinterest plugins won’t pick up the image on hover!
I have Pinterest’s own plugin installed in my browsers, and when you hover over most images on the net you can immediately pin them. With the CSS code mentioned in that thread, my Pinterest button does not function for my featured images!
I also use CSS Hero to help me tweak Enfold (Which is awesome btw), but it can’t pick up the image as an element either.
For reference, here is the CSS in question I am using to achieve this effect so far:

#top.single-post .big-preview.single-big a,
#top.single-post .small-preview {
pointer-events: none;
cursor: default;
}

I am hoping there might be a method to achieve this result using a functions.php trick or the like rather than CSS. Is this possible?
