This is exactly what happens, you get halos around contrasting borders, the more borders, such as branches, or tree lines, the more noticeable.
I believe the photo is real, however the settings are probably...

Shadows (+95-100)
Whites (+85-100)
Blacks (--80-60)

He added post-edit vignetting like a fucking retard, at least 30 on the setting.
Orange slider, fucks sake, it looks like it's positive, and the lumination looks positive too.
You get this vomit look specifically when you're a lazy shit and depend solely on global adjustments and not give a shit about the outcome.
Also, two watermarks
