I really like the subject and what you are trying to do with it. I'm trying to figure out how you could get the whole display in the frame, without the background in the top right corner. It would work if you did an oval vignette.
The other option is moving in tighter, but I'm betting you thought about that already and it didn't get everything you wanted in the photo.

Good use of color and showing the contrasting textures of the mask. As always, I like photographs like this one.
Good job.
Thanks Doug and Patrick!
Doug - You're right of course. I saw the problem in that corner and decided not to bother with it out of laziness I guess. Thank's for not letting me get away with it! :-)
Cheers!

In retrospect, it would not bother me to see a clone job done on that corner. I don't think it would hurt the photo any and it would still keep everything you were trying to get.
