Too much can be "over doing it"

Aggressively editing has made me understand how to create that sense of drama we all look for in our shots. I learnt that in images, "quantity affects the quality". By over doing on your editing (i.e. too much colour, contrast, too much detail) you'll lose a lot of "perspective or focus" to what you want to tell the viewers. Colors affect viewers in many ways and how you use it, makes a huge different, even the use of temperatures have it's affects. However one important key to all you young and eager image editors out there;- "less is more" and "too much destroys the natural look".    

THe two images here, has different quantity of edit. The above has more natural color then below. Whilst more detail below then the above. Though they both look the same but like I say "quantity affect the quality" and it is here you know how u feel between the two. So which do you prefer best? 

So go ahead explore colours,contrast, saturation, clarity, highlights, shadow... but always remember the key: "less is more".
