Thanks, I like the swirliness too. My M-Rokkor 40 does a similar thing with foliage. At first I didn't care for the effect, but it's grown on me. Speaking of nice effect, I like the redscale reverse! Never tried it myself, but might have to experiment now.
 
Redscale is interesting. Some of the photos I got back from the developer were mirrored I think because the emulsion is reversed and they didn't realize it when making the scans. Here is an example. (linked because there isn't any bokeh.)

Another bokeh shot with the same setup as before but with Ilford FP4+:


This one was taken with my Lomo LC-A+ RL:
