PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To appropriately perform color correction in accordance with features of a predetermined color region by: evaluating whether or not chromaticity of a plurality of predetermined color regions (e.g., a face) in a photographed image is distributed with target chromaticity therebetween; and changing a color correction condition in accordance with the result of the evaluation. SOLUTION: A predetermined color region extraction section 101 extracts a predetermined color region to be corrected from an input image, and a representative color calculation section 102 calculates a representative color from color information of the predetermined color region. When there are a plurality of predetermined color regions, a representative color determination section 103 determines one representative color. A representative color distribution evaluation section 104 evaluates whether or not hue values of representative colors for each of the predetermined color regions are distributed at both sides of a hue value of a target color. When distributed at one side, an image correction section 106 performs color correction upon the predetermined color regions. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
