Lights and colours is always a question of personal taste and also colour profiles and monitor.
What I did:
Adjusted highlights in shadows&highlights menu to soften light just a bit.
Used selective saturarion to lower blues on the wood and raise sightly yellows on the mushrooms.
Then I made a two step sharpening, first USM 1pix 50%, then USM 0.2pix 350%.
Of course it would be nicer working with the original shot, but I think worthed posting.
Hope you like!

For Felipe: this is the cluster of Mycena epypterigia you wanted to see in a larger format. Enjoy.

Although I find the colors, saturation, sharpness and composition really nice in this image, the two rather large underexposed areas I find distracting. I cropped and used the shadows slider, added some contrast, sharpened and framed.

I simply used the free NI tool to remove the noise only in the BG, and pop the flower out a bit from there.

Thank you for letting me try this with your lovely image.

Just slighly adjusted the level and increase contrast since I could feel some kind of lens flare in your image. Zenit is not the most recent camera, but still a great tool to learn. I would have added two small round mushroom at the base ;o),
but I am not allowed to do photo trick on TN

Hello Petru,
I reduced highlights to counter the flash effect and bring in more subject detail.
