Filter or Plugin to reduce reflection on photos

[Rinchen]

Hi,
I took photos of our exhibition. Unfortunately the pictures were framed and behind glass. So I got a lot of bad reflections on my photos. Sometimes I can even see myself with the camera. :(
Does anybody know if there is a possibility to reduce these reflections with PSP, a special filter, plugin or what so ever?
Any help would be great! :)
Thank you!

Not that I k now of. Removing flash in glass or reflections is usually done with the Clone Tool, and I hate it so much I never really fix it. It's hard.

If anyone knows an easier way, let us know!

In the future, when taking glass photos, if at all possible put the lens right up on the glass. Don't use the flash, and stand off to one side instead of straight on

I'll try to use the Clone tool but I'm not sure if it will work since the reflections are big and nearly all over the pic. And I doubt there is a filter at all fo this.
Thanks for the tips. To put the lense near the surface was impossible because it were large glass-framed photos I wanted to take pictures of. And I didn't use the flash but the lights and windows were too strong. :-(

In this situation, it's best to just get out of the way. When photographing art, that's impossible.

Fixing these is probably going to take forever. Hopefully someone has some experience they can offer, but I imagine it'll be labor intensive.

However, does anyone have any photography tips for these conditions? To optimize the good photos and reduce glare/reflection?
