Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and program

An image processing method comprising:

• generating, from image data, first corrected image data by correcting the image data with use of a first white balance correction value corresponding to a first light source, and generating second corrected image data by correcting the image data with use of a second white balance correction value corresponding to a second light source;
• dividing the image data into a plurality of blocks;
• calculating a color evaluation value of each of the blocks by adding and averaging values of pixels in the image data for each of the divided blocks;
• calculating a combining ratio based on a difference between the calculated color evaluation value of each block, and a color evaluation value of white under the second light source;
• and
• combining the first corrected image data and the second corrected image data generated by the correction according to the calculated combining ratio.
