Those are cute pics but hamsters will still sleep even if they don't show signs of being uncomfortable with bright lights. Does your hammie have a dark house? I think you said he does? I have a RCD hammie that was under a bright light and I didn't know it wasn't good for her until I read it somewhere. I removed the light and she seem much relieved. Even in pet stores the hammies have to sleep under bright lights in the cages so customers can see them better but it doesn't mean that it is ideal.
