But beyond that, if you are going to do any fancy manipulation of the array of pixels (e.g., image processing, image recognition, convolution, ...), then I'd recommend numpy for the array manipulation. (And perhaps even the full-blown scipy.) Numpy can easily access and manipulate the pixel arrays produced by PIL. It's an awesome combination.
