Interesting... Are you saying that the particle wasn't a light source? When I was doing some testing of the flares that don't light anything up, I discovered that if you have a flare and set it's size large, you could get the camera 'inside' the particle and it would make everything seen through the particle look like daylight. It made everything light up though, even the far horizon, I abandonned it. Is that along the lines of what you were testing?
