哪个命令scipy.misc.imread读取彩色图像？

Question

I am using python and for reading the image I am using the following method

scipy.misc.imread

I am wondering what is the order of color with respect to axis, is it RGB or BGR or any other order?

thanks

Answer 1

It is RGB but just to prove it (you can do it yourself easily), first I create an image using a paint tool such as photoshop of solid color (R=75, G=125, B=255):

Now check it with the following snippet:

>>> from scipy.misc import imread
>>> img = imread("foo.jpg")
>>> img[0,0,:]
 [ 75 125 255]
