Love the Bokeh, is color too much

[kptasteve]

I love the bokeh in this picture. Wish I knew exactly how it happened. I can not see it as clearly on the LCD when taking the shots. Anyway I like to know if lighting is too dark?

focal length of 200m @ f5 resulted in the bokeh.

the lighting: key seems good but it's missing fill camera left - either a dialled down 2nd source or a reflector.

Agreed. Also the white balance is off, her skin color is way too red.

I love bokeh but her nose and its shadow held my attention and not for the right reasons. You could have used fill flash to lose the shadow.
