Do a test for me. Take this red ball you have and put it in a dark room with no light. Now, take a flashlight into this room and shine it on just the wall. See the ball? this is indirect lighting or "Radiosity" and is the key to making a rendering look real. Also, this red ball is not as "red" as you may think it is. And the lighting is not as clean as most renderings are with default settings. Also, have a look at this image, It's too clean to be real. If I added more noise and used dirty lights, it would look real.
