The first thing to do after scanning is to save it as a .tiff file and not a .jpeg, otherwise everytime you adjust and save the picture the quality will go down. But as a .tiff you will not lose any quality. All my images are saved as .tiff and only converted to .jpeg just before printing or uploading to the web.
As for improving the quality, the first thing I would do is crop the image down to the size that you want. And depending upon what software you have many play with the colour channels, and possibly a bit of sharpening around the edges of the trees, without effecting the sky as this needs to stay soft.
