Fantastic! Just wish the bokeh was more round
Can your lens go lower than f/3.5?

sorry mate, this bokeh was in the mood for pentagons apparently

The bokeh is pentagon shaped because your 50mm F/1.8 doesn't have enough aperture blades to get round bokeh at F/3.5 since it is not it's lowest aperture.
You should have shot at f/1.8 for better bokeh that way you could have also lowered your ISO and still got 100th of a second shutter speed

Enjoy your 50mm F/1.8 it gives great bokeh when you use it right

Great photo again
