Abstract: Abstract METHOD, SYSTEM AND APPARATUS FOR MODIFYING A PERCEPTUAL ATTRIBUTE FOR AT LEAST A PART OF AN IMAGE A method of modifying a perceptual attribute for at least a part of an image. A region of 5 the image representing a first object in a scene captured by the image is selected. The method determines, from a depth map of the scene, an initial depth range for the selected image region. The initial depth range for the selected image region is adjusted to a revised depth range to modify a relative depth difference from at least a part of the first object to a second object in the scene. An image process is applied to the selected image region in accordance with the revised 10 depth range to modify a perceptual attribute of the selected object as represented within the image. 1 flQ"73&/|1 -3/7 Start 210 Determine stereo disparity 220 Refine depth Generate aesthetic depth map 240 Display image Receive desired level of change Select processes Enhance image Display enhanced image Fig. 2 CEnd 10827925v1
