Thanks Thomas, that gave me the right idea. In fact I adjusted fade_distance and
fade_power, may be not enough. The main problem are the shadows. They stem from
cylinders around the light source. In reality the shadows are nearly invisible
since the bulbs produce no point light. I think adding no_shadow to this
cylinders will reduce the problem a lot - even though they are not visible in
the image. But a revision of this image has no high priority for me.

Best regards,
Michael
