The background does look a bit enhanced, so I think some manipulation has been done

But if I try to correct this in my head, it is still a remarcably colourfull Satan

There surely has been done some kind of saturation "improvement", but since what I assume the original photograph is found on the very bottom of this page:

I have to agree with Bas - an amazing specimen.
