Congrats on avoiding the utter shame that comes from confusing bokeh with lens flare..

If you're looking into bokeh... check out the m42 lenses like the Helios 44-3. They give amazing swirly bokeh. You may hate it, or just love it...

See this recent shot I took if you're interested.

Good luck with more bokeh shots!
