Abstract

A method for generating a composite image comprises: detecting a color temperature of a background image; acquiring from a camera through an image signal processor, ISP, performing white balance correction of acquired image data, an image including a foreground region including face of a user; and detecting a color temperature of the foreground region. Responsive to the color temperature for the foreground region differing from that of the background image by more than a threshold amount, a color temperature for white balance correction of a subsequently acquired image is set which causes skin pixels within the foreground region of the subsequently acquired image to have a color temperature closer to the color temperature for the background image. Pixel values of the foreground region are combined with pixel values of the background image corresponding to a background region of the acquired image to provide the composite image.
