Abstract

An image processing device includes a face region extracting unit that extracts a face region of a person included in an image to be corrected. A correction region specifying unit specifies a region including the extracted face region as a reduction region and specifies a region excluding the reduction region as an enlargement region. A correction execution unit generates a correction image in which an image in the reduction region is reduced based on a predetermined reduction ratio and an image in the enlargement region is enlarged according to a ratio of the reduction region to the enlargement region.
