    Wonderful shots :)
    Fraid you have a big dfficulty with a ringflash on shiny surfaces. You can try turning off one side or setting the power ratio to a very high ratio and thus cut out one of the reflections. Not sure how feasible it is but you could also try in a shot like this taking off the flash from the end of the lens and placing so only the flower is illuminated and not the droplets. Other than that you could clone out the reflections.
