1. An image correction apparatus comprising:
- a correction target area detection device for detecting a correction target area in the image of a subject;
a correction device for applying at least one correction of a color correction and brightness correction to the correction target area detected by said correction target area detection device; and
a first display control device for controlling a display device in such a manner that the image of the subject in which the correction target area has been corrected by said correction device will be displayed on a display screen with the corrected area pointed out explicitly.

Abstract
Whether the image of a subject contains a redeye-image area is detected. If the image contains a redeye-image area, this area is corrected. In order that a user can ascertain that a redeye-corrected image area has been corrected, a frame is displayed around this corrected image area. The fact that the image area within the frame has undergone the redeye-image correction can be ascertained owing to display of the frame. The user can ascertain which area in the image of the subject has been subjected to redeye-image correction processing.
