I think the first one is a photoshopped because I remember seeing something very similar on a PS site a few years ago a guy brushed the tornado in and some of the clouds. The second one @ first glance id say definetly PS'ed but there have been some strange **** out there so who knows

Neither of them are photoshopped. In the first one, that is not a tornado, that is rain in a downburst. That is a classic Supercell.

The second one is Real also. The orange coloring on the bottom of the cumulus is city light effect.

Very cool.
