In that case open them in Photoshop on a layer above your original photographs and set the blend mode to difference. Any difference will show as a pixel value other than 0,0,0

There are forensic image analisis tools available on line you can use for free

I've not read the instructions, but this seems to indicate areas of strong similarity (possibly cloned).  I am not sure I'd trust it in this case because of that large area of similar tone and colour, but you could try it with  a known edited image for comparison.

    Any chance the images were edited in ACR? If so, you will see an icon in Adobe Bridge if they were edited there. Otherwise, probably not.

        These photos are screenshots. In any case, they are not related to the original photo.

        You can view raw XMP metadata (file -> file info, in case that XMP not deleted), and determine whether they were edited.

            Why do you want to know that?

            What does it matter if they have or have not?

              So why don’t you overlay the presumably edited images with the originals to compare them?
