Comment by Gatorguy:
The residue or whatever it is on the onyx doesn't do this photo any favors. Overall, the picture just seems kind of lifeless to me.

returning for comments.
This is not the effect I would use to match the title. You do not want to see strong dark lines outlining the forearm. Here is what I would have done. Kept the full integrity of the image and used the oval selection to encircle the hands and then imverse the selections and applied levels to darken the outside with a radius of about 40. The ellipse should run diagonally so as to include hands and about half the music book. Bumping up on your desire to experiment.

I don't see how this relates to indecision as I don't think you have a choice here. The sky is too dark.

I like the fence and rusty barbed wire. I think it would be better with a shallower DoF.

Even with the title, I'm afraid the challenge connection is rather weak. Cool cloud formation though.

Its a great shot of a wonderfull old house. I think its at the back of Ghost hill about half way up the dirt road? I have admired it for a long time! Well done Bruce I think.
