Answer 1

you can simply do

from PIL import Image
image = Image.open("D:\\YY_Aadhi\\HED-BSDS\\test\\2018.jpg")

or

from PIL import Image
directory = "D:\\YY_Aadhi\\HED-BSDS\\test\\2018.jpg"
image = Image.open(directory)

like this.

you have to write escape sequence twice in windows, when you want to define as directory. and It will be great if you try some stupid code. It helps you a lot.
