Using a Curves/HSL adjustment you can also then tweak the green, it's a little drab to my eye and I feel going 'brighter' just adds a little more life into the scene. Agree with Dan, overall there is more there to pullout, especially in the foliage, but some may feel it distracts, I guess personal taste again.
