Python pil example: desaturate
#
# You nearly always just need to import Image
# from PIL(low) to do what you need
#
from PIL import Image
#
# It's convenient to import everything from colorzero
# so you don't have to put "colorzero." before everything
#
from colorzero import *
#
# Load an image from the disk into the Pillow Image object
#
image = Image.open("abbey.jpg")
#
# Go across all the columns and down all the rows
# of the image
#
for x in range(image.width):
for y in range(image.height):
coord = (x, y)
#
# For each coordinate, construct a Color object
# from the pixel's RGB value
#
rgb = image.getpixel(coord)
pixel = Color(rgb)
#
# Apply a 75% saturation to the colour and
# give the new colour a new name
#
desat = pixel * Saturation(0.75)
#
# Apply that new colour to the same pixel
# (you need to use .rgb_bytes to get the
# 0-255 colours; if you just use .rgb, you'll
# get RGB values between 0 and 1
#
image.putpixel(coord, desat.rgb_bytes)
#
# Save the altered image under a new name
#
image.save("abbey.desat.jpg")
