A plurality of images are grouped using imaging date and time in supplementary information of an image. The number of images included in each group becomes importance, and images belonging to a group of which the importance is equal to or more than a threshold are evaluation targets in an image evaluation apparatus. An image file representing an image that is an evaluation target is given to the image evaluation apparatus, and image evaluation is performed. Automatic layout of an electronic album is performed using an image of which the image evaluation is high. Since all images stored in a recording medium carried by a user are not image evaluation targets, but images considered to be important become image evaluation targets, a time according to the image evaluation is shortened and a waiting time for the user is also shortened. |
