Some of the photos look as if they were photoshopped but it is only a natural phenomenon, although very rare. It is mostly observed in Northern Australia's Gulf of Carpentaria. As you can see, the cloud looks like a roll. It can be up to 1000 kilometres long, 1 to 2 kilometres high, and can move at speeds up to 60 kilometres per hour.

The morning glory cloud is truly impressive!
