Lilies 'n Bokeh' with vintage Russian lenses

These lilies in the flower garden outside our house only last a few days so I thought i'd take a few minutes to compare my Helios 44m 58/2 against my C.Z. Jena Tessar 50/2.8...

The CZ 2.8 is just a little sharper wide open than the Helios, but dang that's some creamy bokeh from both!

I tried to get the same compositions with both lenses... can you tell the difference?

The first and third images are from the CZ lens and the second and fourth are the helios.

The helios sure does make that creamy, creamy bokeh that i love!!
For lenses that are 60+ years old

Thanks for taking a look
