Remember that really cool picture you saw with all the lights blurred out in the background?. The way that those lights became blurry globes of light is bokeh. It's really only possible with a really shallow focus. It's better some lenses than others. The best way to get what you want is to just play around with focal lengths and the distance between your subject and the light.
Fab post, I have always wanted to achieve this effect and i'm going to give it another go now with your tips. Thanks :-)
