Suzi,
I am glad you found your own way with this rare moment picture!
This common challenge shows why the people in this forum are so different from others... They pre-visualize the wanted result and find ways to achieve it, instead of trying mysterious tricks at random hoping that one will be magical.
About colour:
None of my edits were about color correction or enhancements. If it has a warm effect (just like Christell's), it's because we kept the natural colours and made them stand out by darkening the background tone. (Framing is important also). Painters know it: to make color spots stand out (saturation), play on the adjacent colours by contrast.
