I'm asking this because both black and white (and all the grays in between) return 0 when their red, green, or blue values are called.

For example:

photo = Image.open("C:\Users\USERNAME\Pictures\ThisImageIsBlackAndWhite.png")
pixelPhoto = photo.load()
redAmount = pixelPhoto[x,y][0]
print(redAmount)

# 0

It always returns a 0 no matter how bright/dark the actual pixel itself is.

How was `photo` defined? What is the output of `print(pixelPhoto[x, y]`? – mkrieger1 Aug 29 '21 at 13:47
@mkrieger1 added update to code snippet, output of ```print(pixelPhoto[x, y])``` was ```0``` – 7abc778 Aug 29 '21 at 13:50
