Start Using the Pillow Library to Process Images in Python

This is a preview of a Real Python Video Course about processing images using the Pillow library and Python. When you look at an image, you see the objects and people in it. However, when you read an image programmatically with Python or any other language, the computer sees an array of numbers. In this video course, you’ll learn how to manipulate images and perform basic image processing using the Python Pillow library.

This is a portion of the complete course, which you can find here:

The rest of the course covers:
- Blurring, Sharpening, and Smoothing
- Edge Detection, Enhancement, and Embossing
- Erosion and Dilation
- Image Segmentation
- Superimposition of Images
- Use NumPy with Pillow for further processing
- Create animations using Pillow

Criminally underrated. What a succinct explanation for a library.

kudos to you for diving deep into the pillow library, always appreciated when someone sheds light on OG python tools

but honestly, with the advancement of other libraries like opencv, pillow sometimes feels a bit outdated for more advanced tasks

that said, this tutorial is bomb for newbies looking to get their feet wet in image processing

keep rocking the knowledge!

This is absolutely awesome! Am working on a Django project that should allow users to upload images, and this is just what I was looking for.
