You can master Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV - PyImageSearch
In this tutorial, you will learn how to use OpenCV and the cv2.imread function to: Load an input image from disk Determine the image’s width, height, and number of channels Display the loaded image to our screen Write the image…

One of my favorite photography techniques is long exposure, the process of creating a photo that shows the effect of passing time, something that traditional photography does not capture. When applying this technique, water becomes silky smooth, stars in a…
