Downtime issues caused by 301 redirects for SSL

Hi - I seem to be getting alot of down time on my site (www.robpackphotography.com) and, therefore, 5xx errors from google crawls. Looking at my Pingdom report I have lots of downtime (and 301 redirects) where Cloudflare is resolving non https requests. Can someone help with;
a) Are these two things related?
b) What should I do - is it Cloudflare and would I be better of doing manual redirects rather that using the ‘force HTTPS’ feature or is it my server --or something else?
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I attach my pingdom printout for a month - just seems like a lot of down time instances.
Thanks

Rob
