Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes an image input section, an image segmenting section, a correcting section and a determining section. The image input section loads an input image data. The image segmenting section segments the image data into a main area containing an image of a main subject and a non-main area other than the main area. The correcting section corrects a color of the main area based on a color of the non-main area. The determining section determines a variance of hue of the non-main area. In the above-stated constitution, the correcting section enhances the correction of the color of the main area when the variance of hue of the non-main area is small compared to a case when the variance is large.
