with this ring... - a photo on Flickriver

with this ring...

            I am about to get married to my wonderful fiance Amanda.  She is the center of my life, mother to my children, and what keeps me going day after day.

About the shot:

D700, sigma 150 macro
3 speedlights at various positions, 2 shoot through umbrellas and one in a small softbox.  
Placed rings on a piece of plexiglass to get a reflection.  
Background is a scrap piece of metallic looking background tile stuff that I thought would compliment the hammered finish of my ring.

The lighting probably still needed some work, but I was pretty happy with how her ring looks.  

Increased blacks, and saturation, and cloned out some fuzz and dust.

Any ideas on how to get rid of the double reflection?  I am getting one off the top of the plexi and one off the bottom or the table, not sure.
