Beautiful photo. How did you shoot it? Did you focus stack it? I'm always trying to compose a rose just like this and I can never get it to look like this. I come close though. I just shot a bunch of roses a few days ago that my husband gave me. I wanted one like this, but couldn't figure out how to do it. I did try and came close.

I like the infrared pics. Very nice. It's been on my list to try infrared photography, do you use an infrared filter? Or something else?
 
Not sure I got this composition right, but I thought it was a pretty scene.

Looking at your website, you have some beautiful flower shots.

Thank you for your lovely comment - I have an old Panasonic G1 camera that has been converted to IR, meaning that the filter over the sensor has been replaced with one that only lets infrared light through, in this case 680nm.
In post processing, if the red / blue channels are swapped then saturation boosted you can get the so called 'goldie' effect you see in my photos.

Cheers :)

The composition just looks fine to me . I like how the open gate seems to naturally lead your eyes into entering the path and lead you to the church. But there is a lot of tilt to the image and you might want to consider some lens correction to straighten things out.
