And if there are other red objects in the image that you
do not want changed, just duplicate the layer, make the
changes to one layer only, and then use which ever
method suits your needs to selectively use the cherries
from the layer with increased saturation.
One way to do that would be to increase saturation in
the bottom layer, have the top layer in "normal" mode at
100% opacity, and use the erase tool to make the area of
the cherries transparent in the top layer. The less
saturated top layer would be visible for everything
except the cherries, and the more saturated bottom
layer would be visible for the cherries.
