Jerome, I just looked at the pictures, the subject matter, and the equipment list. I think you have operator error, a problem with the 'wet-ware'. <g>
Try seeing how far out (distance) you can use that AF330FTZ flash. Try some test shots. Look for flash confirmation signals in the viewfinder or on the flash. My AF500FTZ with an onboard zoom feature doesn't work with the kind of subjects you are taking. You look to be far away or the animals would be frightened. Your film is slow. Your flash is weak. You've got to get a tripod and an available light exposure with these kind of conditions. That flash is only gonna help you indoors! (well, mainly...) Regards, Bob S.
