Takumar Bokeh

I recently bought a Super-Takumar 50mm f/1.4 to use on my D90 with an infinity focus adapter. Results are interesting. Wide open, it is very soft and the focus doesn't seem to correlate with what I see through the view finder. I'm not sure if this is the lens or the adapter. Despite this, wide open it has unusual qualities which I like, things seem to glow and look almost more like a painting than a photo.

 

And, of course, the Bokeh...
