Fake or not? Cloud formations

[Eggmundo]

Pretty sad subject I know but I can't decide whther these are real or fake?
Called Mammatus (sp) formations, supposed to happen right before a tornado or similiar occurence.

Either way, pretty damn freaky!!!1!!

RE: The top photo.

I do quite alot of work on Paintshop pro etc and their is something not right about it.

Wether the clouds are real or not I couldnt say, but the buildings arnt right. The floodlights seem to perfect and slightly blurred. If they buildings were faked then I see no reason why the sky isnt the same.

I can't place it. But I'd be weary of the first picture!

I can't say for sure that these photos are real, but the type of cloud formation in them are very definately real. Caused by air moving downwards very quickly in large thunderstorms. I've never seem it that pronounced in this country but they do exist.

Better than that though are these clouds:

If it helps, they look a bit like the smoke you would be more familiar with.
