I know it's a bit cliche, but i just love taking these shots. Are the colours a bit over saturated?

Thanks Skip Souza, i think only the colours in the reflection on the water are a bit intense.

The colors on the water are a bit intense, but still a great shot.

CHeers for the nice words.

That's a really cool panorama you have there! Is that from Kirribilli area?

I took that shot from Mrs Macquaries Chair in the botanical gardens.

I like the oversaurated colors. It give the shot some "neon painting" feeling. IMHO, you have two choices: desaturate to have more natural look or at the opposite, try to exagerate the effect ans what it looks like. It may turn out nice, maybe even trying to use a creative filter like the neon glow.
