  • Patent number: 8570424
    Abstract: A display apparatus displays a distance bar indicating a ratio of movement distance to the entire photographing route, and a time bar indicating a ratio to the entire time, together with photographed images. Moreover, the display apparatus displays specific photographing date/time on top of the time bar. During slide show display, when one of separator lines indicating photographing locations is designated, the slide show is immediately switched to a display of the photographed image. At this time, the distance bar is updated to the designated separator line, and corresponding to this, the time bar is also updated to time when photographing is performed at the designated separator line. Thereafter, when a certain time has elapsed, the slide show display is resumed in the order of photographing from the photographed image.
