I am pleased that you like it. I am quite fond of it, as I had to spend some time in Photoshop removing a blue colour cast, that had affected about a dozen snaps taken at the time, for a reason I never fathomed out. By pulling out the reds this one was more successful than the rest.
As for technique I am a really lazy amateur. I hardly ever change settings, except for the iso number and composition is a mixture of what I see and like through the viewfinder and selective cropping on the computer.
