Abstract
A single composite image is generated by selecting a pixel value for each pixel in any one of a plurality of captured images having been consecutively captured. A motion vector between at least two captured images among the plurality of captured images is calculated. Correction processing is performed, based on a motion vector corresponding to a pixel of interest in the composite image, on the pixel of interest or a pixel near the pixel of interest. The correction processing is performed by updating, using a bright pixel value, a pixel value of at least one pixel in a group of pixels associated with a path from the pixel of interest to a pixel indicated by the motion vector corresponding to the pixel of interest.
