Basically the canvas object needs a fresh bitmap to draw to, passing in your immutable image defeats the point of the later draw operation. The following code creates a new bitmap for the canvas. You will need to replace the width and height variables to match your use case:

Bitmap b = Bitmap.createBitmap(width, height, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888)
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(photo);
