skimage.io.imread(fname, as_grey=False, plugin=None, flatten=None, **plugin_args) [source]

Load an image from file.

Parameters:

Parameters:	fname : string Image file name, e.g. `test.jpg` or URL. as_grey : bool If True, convert color images to grey-scale (32-bit floats). Images that are already in grey-scale format are not converted. plugin : str Name of plugin to use. By default, the different plugins are tried (starting with the Python Imaging Library) until a suitable candidate is found. If not given and fname is a tiff file, the tifffile plugin will be used.
Returns:	img_array : ndarray The different colour bands/channels are stored in the third dimension, such that a grey-image is MxN, an RGB-image MxNx3 and an RGBA-image MxNx4.
Other Parameters:
	plugin_args : keywords Passed to the given plugin.
