Abstract

In an example embodiment a method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method includes facilitating access of a plurality of images associated with a scene comprising at least one moving object, and segmenting the plurality of images into foreground regions and background regions based on changes in corresponding image regions between the images. The foreground regions comprise the at least one moving object. The method includes determining at least one object parameter associated with the at least one moving object in the foreground regions and generating a background image based on the background regions, and modifying at least one of the foreground regions and the background image to represent a motion of the at least one moving object based on the at least one object parameter. The method includes generating a composite image based on the modified at least one of the foreground regions and the background image.
