  The balls are definitely missing shiny highlights and a bit of
reflection (perhaps slightly blurred one).

  (Let me guess: You rendered this with radiosity only? Radiosity cannot
simulate specular highlights, so surfaces get a rather dull finish.
Don't be afraid of using light sources. They will help rendering the
image faster as well, because you will need lower quality radiosity
settings for the same image quality.)
