Snopes has debunked the second and third one.

I'm pretty sure the second is photoshopped, and the third one isn't a shark as it appears, but rather a dolphin.

Very impressive.. all of them. The shark one really freaks me out though.

edit: Even if it is a dolphin, it's still awesome.

The lightning one reminds of me some great folders I used to have, they had the coolest pictures on them. Of course there were like unicorns in them but still!

I knew the shark one wasn't real. It still is a very neat picture, even if it is just a dolphin.

I did look for the cloud thing on snopes.com, and really all they said that it wasn't that it was really fake, it was that it wasn't hurricane Isabel. They did say that water wasn't really rough for the type of storm it was, but they have another picture showing a REAL type of cloud that looks just like it.

THIS PICTURE IS 100% A REAL PICTURE:

Wow...those are great. Some have to be photoshopped, but still awesome. The one of the man holding the setting sun is commical.

Fake or otherwise, I think they're great.

Most of the photos I take I will play around with as well. [amateur photographer] It's like painting a picture....I just can't paint.

That looks like a shark to me, the nose is too sharp to be a dolphin. Great pics though, amazing.

It's a dolphin because if you can make out there's that tiny side fin thing that dolphins have and I am PRETTY sure that sharks don't have those. I could obviously be wrong I just didn't think they did.

Beautiful. I'm not overly concerned if they're all genuine or not. Art is art and any standard of authenticity is irrelevant to the appreciation of them. They don't have to be 'true' in order to accurately reflect 'truth'.

Some sharks do, not all dolphins do. It looks too small to be a great white, too big to be a nurse or tiger(which are the only one who usually frequent that close to shore.), and definetly too big to be a dolphin. If it is a dolphin, and photoshopped really means little, since it's creepy to think about.
