This is my code from PIL import Image pil_im = Image.open('data/empire.jpg') I would like to do some image manipulation on it, and then show it on screen. I am having problem with showing PIL Image in python notebook. I have tried: print pil_im And just pil_im But both just give me: <PIL.JpegImagePlugin.JpegImageFile image mode=RGB size=569x800 at 0x10ECA0710>
