Abstract
An image processing apparatus processes an input color image, combines the input color image with the processed color image in a ratio that varies from picture element to picture element according to the hue of the picture element, and outputs the combined image. The output image can accordingly be selectively processed to give desired qualities in suitable degrees to particular hues.
