The far one is Orthanc... I hate to disagree with you Hair, but the near one is Orthanc. I thought the same thing you did until I looked at the stairs coming out of the near tower. Those are the stairs that Saruman came down when he met Gandalf.
Here is a pic of Orthanc, as envisioned by Alan Lee

Hmmm! well, you have a point about the stairs! I shall go find some of the FoTR shots of Barad Dur to bring in....

I thought that the near one was Barad Dur and the far one was Minas Morgul, but after the pic you posted ksen, I'm havin' to re-think that...
Oh, hullo everyone...Hey Corin, what's for lunch? heh heh heh
