My question as OP asked: which PP program you recommend?
What are your suggestions?

I'm one of the minorities that use Paint Shop Pro (Version X4 for me). You can get the latest version (X7) on Amazon for for less than $60, version X6 for less than $50 and version X5 (newer than mine) for less than $25. All will work on your systems.

PSP has all the tool photoshop has but some are operate differently. Although there aren't as many web-based tutorials available for PSP, most of the tutorials for Photoshop can be translated into PSP. PSP also accepts almost all of the plug-ins for Photoshop.
Applied a gradient background to this image
B&W Conversion and cloned out some stuff in the backgroun in this image
Combined 5 exposures in this image.
A little masking and shifting of Hue in this image.
All I can say is that PSP has the tools at a pretty reasonable price.
