An image combination device acquires a first object image, a second object
image, and a background image by first object image acquiring section
(1), second object image acquiring section (3), and background image
acquiring section (2) and by using one of the three images as a standard
image, generates two corrected images by background correction amount
calculating section (4) and corrected image generating section (5), so
that background portions of the two images correspond. Superimposed image
generating section (9) generates an image by superimposing the standard
image and one or two of the corrected images. According to this
arrangement, since the backgrounds of the superimposed images correspond
to each other, the first object and the second object, which have been
photographed separately, can be combined without causing an impression
that these objects are combined to the background artificially.
