Question: Is the above real clouds or merely a product of some fancy CG ?
Answer: Real clouds.
And if you have more or better examples of real stuffs imitating CG, please share them here.
Google for Asperatus clouds (e.g. see http://salinguerra.wordpress.com/2009/06/17/l%E2%80%99asperatus-una-nuova-nuvola/ (http://salinguerra.wordpress.com/2009/06/17/l%E2%80%99asperatus-una-nuova-nuvola/)).
Nobody would create a render with such unbelievable clouds ;D.
