used the image you provided
Duplicated the original layer adjusted curves to make more prominent black and white
in blending options outer glow and hue settings in it and orange color opacity in 40%
gradient overlay and from darker orange to lighter and scale 41 opacity 100%
now lock transparent pixels
use drop shadow brush hardness very low and quite large scale red color.. turn brush mode to color burn about 40%
paint over a bit ( i painted lower areas ) turn brush mode to color dodge and brush upper areas
Upper layer ( gradient ) has gradient fill, partly transparent and white color turned into saturation mode
