Python PIL | GaussianBlur() method (original) (raw)

Last Updated : 14 Jul, 2019

PIL is the Python Imaging Library which provides the python interpreter with image editing capabilities. The ImageFilter module contains definitions for a pre-defined set of filters, which can be used with the Image.filter() method. **PIL.ImageFilter.GaussianBlur()** method create Gaussian blur filter.

Syntax: PIL.ImageFilter.GaussianBlur(radius=5) Parameters: radius – blur radius. Changing value of radius the different intensity of GaussianBlur image were obtain.Returns type: An image.

Image Used:

Python3 1== `

Importing Image and ImageFilter module from PIL package

from PIL import Image, ImageFilter

creating a image object

im1 = Image.open(r"C:\Users\System-Pc\Desktop\leave.JPG")

applying the Gaussian Blur filter

im2 = im1.filter(ImageFilter.GaussianBlur(radius = 5))

im2.show()

`

Output: **radius:**radius value used here is 2.
