Applying Box Blur to an image using the Pillow library

In this program, we will blur an image using a Box filter. The ImageFilter class in the pillow library contains a function called BoxBlur() which helps to apply the box blur filter. It takes only one parameter that is blur radius.

Algorithm

Step 1: Import Image and ImageFilter from Pillow.

im = Image.open('image_test.jpg')
im1 = im.filter(ImageFilter.BoxBlur(radius = 7))
im1.show()
