An image processing method according to this invention includes: a step of generating a histogram by counting a number of pixels for each predetermined color section in a color system having no singular point, for a specific image; a step of detecting a local peak that is a portion where the counted number of pixels is maximum in the generated histogram, and determining a local peak color value, which is a color value corresponding to said local peak; and a step of identifying a pixel in the specific image based on the determined local peak color value. This enables the determination of an appropriate local peak color value regardless of the achromatic color or chromatic color. |
