Raymond say: Are you an American?
If yes, then it is useless for us to give you an intelligent answer.
If not, then you already know that it is not fake.

poldi2 say: Really, you don't think clouds reflect light. Wow.

Sharon say: gas clouds (nebulas) are well known to reflect. In fact reflection nebulas are, along with emission nebulas and obscuring nebulas, among the major types

Photos of black holes are not possible, there is nothing to see. But you can see hot gases being sucked into it.
But we are too far from any to get any photos.

CarolOklaNola say: WHAT PHOTO? Without a clickable hyperlink, I don't have enough data to answer the question. NO ONE can read your mind. One recent question had 6 or more images, and my of those were artist concepts.
Bait & phish questions like this drive me crazy. These questions are intentional dares and provocations to see see if someone grabs the bait, then you thumb down the serious answers or falsely report the answers you don't like.
