Claim One:
1. An image capture control apparatus for controlling an image capture direction of an image capture unit, comprising: a limiting unit configured to limit an output image output by the image capture control apparatus to part of a range where the image capture unit can capture by changing the image capture direction; a generation unit configured to generate, based on a first output image of a first aspect ratio output by the image capture unit under limitation by the limiting unit to the part of the range where the image capture unit can capture, a second output image of a second aspect ratio under the limitation by the limiting unit to the part of the range where the image capture unit can capture; and an output unit configured to output the second output image of the second aspect ratio via a communication network, wherein said generation unit generates the second output image of the second aspect ratio to have a first side contacting with a first side of the part of the range where the image capture unit can capture, without removing, from the first output image, a region configured by a first side of the first output image contacting with the first side of the part of the range where the image capture unit can capture, but by removing, from the first output image, a region configured by a second side of the first output image opposite to the first side of the first output image.
