Very nice.  May I suggest you move your combustion up in the scene to be a bit
more realistic. Gas and oil burn a bit above the source of the fuel.

You can always add a colored light with a fast fall-off to light close to the
lamp and not into all the shadows.  If you place it right at the tip of the
flame, it might do what you need in the scene.

Keep up the good work,
Robert.
