This is Photography thread, so it isn't composite.
Yes, it maybe looks little flat because of flash and strong zoom.

First shot was made with Nikon D50 with 300 mm zoom lens.
Others with Canon 50D with 200 mm lens.

Now those are pretty expensive toys or they are expensive in the states. Are they yours? Or do you have a rich uncle who buys you expensive toys?

If you have a rich uncle... wanna lend him to me for a while?

Yes, you guess, John, they are not my. No rich uncle
I have 2 friends who own these cams. So they give me one by one their cams on this match. There were bad light conditions for my Fuji S6500.

Have you tried going to a higher ISO/ASA rating? That makes the camera take less samples and makes the camera more sensitive and you can wing a couple more shots in poor lighting. The drawback to a higher iso setting is higher noise tho... The shots are not as clean, same as using a 800 film instead of a 32...
