-some good bokeh I think... a bit weird & lumpy.

If you click on the images, most have full pixel crops, not all
flattering, oh well, I do those to study & learn, referencing the exif
shutter/aperture/ISO settings.

Eek! The bokeh is *hideous* with lots of bright edges.

I much prefer your other shot of the same subject:

Christmas lights are very challenging, I thought the big blobs in that
were mostly pretty good... like you see in movies. What I don't
understand is how the blocks get lumpy like this one:
