Hi Chris,

I found a workaround at:

www.programcreek.com/python/example/99442/matplotlib.image.imread

I don't know if is the most elegant  but it worked.

I replaced:

imagem = mpimg.imread('lenna.png')


by the command:


  imagem = (mpimg.imread('lenna.png') * 255).astype('uint8')

Thanks,

Markos
