Abstract: A subject is imaged repeatedly and color images of the subject are obtained. A color histogram is generated from the color subject image obtained and a representative color is decided from the color histogram generated. A specific color range that can be considered a color identical with the representative color is decided from the color histogram and representative color. Color outside the specific color range in the color subject image is changed to gray, an image of the subject in which the non-specific colors have been changed to gray is obtained and the image is displayed. Processing such as deciding the specific color range is repeated. When an instruction to fix the specific color is issued, the specific color range is fixed.
