4. The client terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more circuits are further configured to control the plurality of candidates for the reference captured images to be displayed on a screen of the display unit on a grip side of the client terminal.

5. The client terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more circuits are further configured to control the detailed information to be displayed on a screen on which the plurality of candidates for the reference captured images are displayed.

6. The client terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more circuits are further configured to control the detailed information to be displayed on a preview screen for the actual image capture that is switched in response to selection of the reference captured image.

7. The client terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the detailed information includes at least one of an image capturing parameter, image capturing position information, or image capturing date and time information.

8. The client terminal according to claim 1 ,

wherein the one or more circuits are further configured to set, in an event an actual image capturing mode is switched to in response to selection of the reference captured image, an image capturing parameter included in the detailed information attached to the selected reference captured image.

9. The client terminal according to claim 1 ,

wherein the one or more circuits are further configured to control, in an event an actual image capturing mode is switched to in response to selection of the reference captured image, actual image capturing guide information that corresponds to the selected reference captured image to be displayed on a preview screen for the actual image capture.

10. The client terminal according to claim 9 , wherein the actual image capturing guide information includes at least one of guide information used to set a composition or an angle similar to a composition or an angle of the selected reference captured image, or guide information that guides a user to hold the client terminal.

11. The client terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more circuits are further configured to control a position or a size of each of the plurality of candidates for the reference captured images to be displayed based on score information attached to each of the plurality of candidates for the reference captured images.

12. The client terminal according to claim 1 , wherein each of the reference captured images is a photographic subject that is identical or similar to a photographic subject included in the preliminary captured image obtained by the preliminary image capture, or is a captured image with a composition, an angle, and an effect that are identical or similar to a composition, an angle, and an effect of the preliminary captured image.

13. The client terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more circuits are further configured to control the plurality of candidates for the reference captured images to be displayed on the display unit, wherein each of the reference captured images is re-retrieved based on an actual captured image obtained by the actual image capture.

14. The client terminal according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a receiver configured to receive the plurality of candidates for the reference captured images from a server.

15. The client terminal according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a storage unit configured to store the reference captured images; and

a retrieval unit configured to retrieve each of the plurality of candidates for the reference captured images from the storage unit based on the preliminary captured image obtained by the preliminary image capture.

16. A display control method, comprising:

controlling a plurality of candidates for reference captured images to be displayed on a display unit, each of the reference captured images being retrieved based on a preliminary captured image obtained by preliminary image capture in an imaging unit and being referred to during actual image capture;

controlling detailed information to be output, the detailed information being attached to a reference captured image selected from among the displayed plurality of candidates for the reference captured images; and

controlling each of the plurality of candidates for the reference captured images to be overlaid on a map image displayed on the display unit.

17. A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with computer-readable instructions, which when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform operations, comprising:

controlling a plurality of candidates for reference captured images to be displayed on a display unit, each of the reference captured images being retrieved based on a preliminary captured image obtained by preliminary image capture in an imaging unit and being referred to during actual image capture;

controlling detailed information to be output, the detailed information being attached to a reference captured image selected from among the displayed plurality of candidates for the reference captured images; and

controlling each of the plurality of candidates for the reference captured images to be overlaid on a map image displayed on the display unit.

18. A system, comprising:

a client terminal that includes a first set of circuits configured to:

transmit a preliminary captured image obtained by preliminary image capture to a server,

receive a plurality of candidates for reference captured images from the server, wherein each of plurality of candidates for the reference captured images is retrieved based on the preliminary captured image obtained by the preliminary image capture,

control the received plurality of candidates for the reference captured images to be displayed on a display unit,

control detailed information to be output, wherein the detailed information is attached to a reference captured image selected from among the displayed plurality of candidates for the reference captured images, and
