Did you try
photo = PIL.Image.open("bytes.txt")
?
If the above code is illustrative, and you really need the bytes in memory
remember to open the file in binary mode:
with open("bytes.txt", "rb") as instream:
data = instream.read()
To create the image later the file-like objects needs to produce bytes:
instream = io.BytesIO(data) # not StringIO!
photo = Image.open(instream)
