I've seen rock like this, it isn't unrealistic at all, it looks somewhat 
volcanic, or eroded sedimentary stone. Most exposed rock I've seen 
around this area is sandstone which cleaves off and erodes very 
differently from that, but I have seen similar surfaces in pictures. I 
didn't have any trouble recognizing it as a vertical rock surface of 
some kind, though it needs something to give it a sense of scale.

Though a lot of things in nature look unnatural...leaves sometimes look 
like plastic, many things look unnaturally bright (tropical treefrogs or 
fish for example), and the sky outside my window looks downright fake 
(the clouds are glowing bright pink in a sky that is a weird shade of 
green shading to a bright blue above).
