1. An image display apparatus, comprising:
- a detection section configured to detect a user'"'"'s watching state;
an image forming section configured to form a display image that is displayed on a screen based on a plurality of images and changes the display image based on a detected result of the detection section;
a display process section configured to perform a process of displaying the display image formed by the image forming section; and
an image information obtaining section configured to extract capture date and capture time information of each of the images as attribute information of each of the images,wherein the image forming section is configured to decide a display order of each of the images that forms the display image based on the attribute information obtained by the image information obtaining section such that multiple images are arranged along a first axis at a coordinate equal to the capture date information, and multiple images are arranged along a second axis at a coordinate equal to the capture time information, the image forming section is configured to calculate a degree of subject matter correlation of an image selected by the user with each of the images that forms the display image and form the display image based on the calculated degree of subject matter correlation, and if the display image has been formed in such a manner that each of the images that forms the display image has been permitted to overlap and each of the images that forms the display image overlaps, the image forming section performs a process of moving an image having a higher degree of subject matter correlation with the selected image to a foreground plane of a screen of the display section.

15. An image display method, comprising:
-
detecting a user'"'"'s watching state; extracting capture date and capture time information of each of the images as attribute information of each of the images; forming a display image that is displayed on a screen based on a plurality of images and changing the display image based on a detected result of the detection section, the forming including deciding a display order of each of the images that forms the display image based on the attribute information obtained by the image information obtaining section such that multiple images are arranged along a first axis at a coordinate equal to the capture date information, and multiple images are arranged along a second axis at a coordinate equal to the capture time information; calculating a degree of subject matter correlation of an image selected by the user with each of the images that forms the display image and forming the display image based on the calculated degree of subject matter correlation; performing a process of moving an image having a higher degree of subject matter correlation with the selected image to a foreground plane of the display image if the display image has been formed in such a manner that each of the images that forms the display image has been permitted to overlap and each of the images that forms the display image overlaps; and performing a process of displaying the display image that has been formed. - View Dependent Claims (16)
