The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

The girl that works beside me here in the office is always editing her photos with photoshop. I think that will probably be your best choice for a mac. However, I am sure there are some other good ones out there that you can use.
I have the canon EOS rebel XS and it came with some pretty neat software that lets you adjust some of the settings as if you were still in the camera.
Great job though! I am having trouble taking some inside shots with my stock lens but I really just need to setup statues with better background and lighting.
I think the best experience you will have taking these photos is on a bright day. Take one of these statues outside on a table and let the sun do the work for you.

Good luck!

Photoshop is the best, but it's quite expensive. A good alternative is Gimp, it's a freeware that I use and it works well, less powerfull than Photoshop but you can already do very good things if you know it

There is also a huge community around Gimp, so you can easily find plenty of help, tutorials or advices on the web!..

Nice pics by the way
