Rep Power: 0  | A background for the render would significantly increase the render time. Just crea a plane underneath and bend it upwards or extrude a spline. Also enabling final gather with the indirect illumination? |

Rep Power: 6  | The candel design is cool ^^ i like it. but a background, even just a simpel grey one with a 3 point light setup would give the candel a more realistic look. if you want to even drag it futer, read about HDRI and how you can implement that in your render and materials.
