1. An apparatus comprising: a specifying unit configured to specify at least one object from an image; a first determination unit configured to determine whether the object specified in the image by said specifying unit is divided by an output target region having a predetermined aspect ratio, the output target region being set so that the entirety of the output target region is included in the image; and a second determination unit configured to determine the output target region in the image based on a determination result by said first determination unit so that a first region, that includes the entirety of a first object and does not include a second object, is determined as the output target region preferentially to a second region that divides each of the first object and the second object.
