Reading images in python

With matplotlib you can use (as shown in the matplotlib documentation)

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.image as mpimg

img=mpimg.imread('image_name.png')

And plot the image if you want

imgplot = plt.imshow(img)

You can also use Pillow like this:

from PIL import Image
image = Image.open("image_path.jpg")
image.show()

For the better answer, you can use these lines of code. Here is the example maybe help you :

image = cv2.imread('/home/pictures/1.jpg')
plt.imshow(image)
plt.show()

In imread() you can pass the directory .so you can also use str() and + to combine dynamic directories and fixed directory like this:

path = '/home/pictures/'
for i in range(2) :
    image = cv2.imread(str(path)+'1.jpg')
    plt.imshow(image)
    plt.show()

Both are the same.
