Abstract
An acquisition unit acquires light source information specifying a virtual light source, normal line information indicating a normal line distribution in a shooting range, and normal line error information indicating a normal line error region in which an error has occurred in the normal line distribution. A first generation unit generates first gain information indicating a first gain amount distribution, based on the light source information and the normal line information. A second generation unit generates second gain information indicating a second gain amount distribution, by performing smoothing processing on a gain amount of a region, which corresponds to the normal line error region, in the first gain amount distribution. An addition unit adds an effect of the virtual light source to an image of the shooting range based on the second gain amount distribution.
