The moutains look to me like some of the photographs of Mons Olympus on Mars where the very highest elevations are in sharp focus and the lower elevations are blurred out.

Yeah that terraced effect is sort of unintentional but that is what you get for laziness and not really knowing photoshop nor the templates that well

And yes it is very much a fantasy map. It is actually an island in the west, some ways south of the Neck.
This might explain a bit better where it lies.
