Abstract: A photographing apparatus includes a photographing module, an image processor, a line-of-sight direction determination module, a main subject determination module, and an emphasis processor. The line-of-sight direction determination module determines a line-of-sight direction of the photographer by comparing with the reference line-of-sight direction of the photographer in the image data acquired by the image processor. The main subject determination module determines a main subject to be photographed by the photographer, based on the line-of-sight direction determined by the line-of-sight direction determination module. The emphasis processor executes an emphasis process on the main subject determined by the main subject determination module.
