To address a technical problem such that when multiple images are aligned and synthesized, there is a possibility such that a misalignment occurs among the multiple images, but a user is unable to designate a region where re-alignment processing is performed on the multiple images in such a case.SOLUTION: An image processing device has: alignment means for performing alignment processing among multiple images; image synthesis means for generating a synthesized image synthesized by superposing the multiple images having undergone the alignment by the alignment means; and re-alignment means for performing again the alignment processing among the multiple images. The re-alignment means performs the alignment within an identified region identified in the synthesized image or in any one of the multiple images.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 14 【課題】複数の画像の位置を合わせて合成する場合に、複数の画像相互間の位置ずれが生じることが懸念されるが、この場合に複数の画像間の再度の位置合わせ処理を行う領域をユーザが指示することができないという課題がある。【解決手段】複数の画像間の位置合わせ処理を行う位置合わせ手段と、位置合わせ手段で位置合わせされた複数の画像を重ね合わせて合成した合成画像を生成する画像合成手段と、複数の画像間の位置合わせを再度行う再位置合わせ手段、を有し、再位置合わせ手段は、合成画像中または複数のそれぞれの画像のいずれかにおいて特定された特定領域での位置合わせを行う。【選択図】図１４
