Modify Pixel Color of Image in Python

In various cases, while processing and editing images, the pixel values of an image are modified. This is done for several reasons, for example, for color correction of the images, to enhance the image by modifying the brightness, contrast, and other parameters, and so on. This article aims to show you how you can modify the pixel colors of an image in Python. This could be useful for you to programmatically improve the appearance of the images.

Python Library to Modify Pixel Colors

Aspose.Imaging for Python is a powerful image processing library that offers a wide range of features to manipulate images. Using the library, you can easily access and modify the pixel values of an image in your Python application. To use the library, you can either download or install it using the following command.

> pip install aspose-imaging-python-net 

Modify Pixel Colors of an Image in Python

To modify the pixel colors, we first need to retrieve the pixel values from the image. Once we have the pixel values, we can update them as we need. The following are the steps to get the pixel colors of an image and modify them in Python.

  • First, load the image using Image.load() method.
  • Then, get pixel values in an array using image.load_pixels() method.
  • After that, update the pixel color values in the array.
  • Once done, save the new pixel values using image.save_pixels() method.
  • Finally, save the updated image using Image.save() method.

The following code sample shows how to update the pixel colors in an image in Python.
