You can loop through each image in the directory and use flip of OpenCV to flip it horizontally on based on what axis you want. You can then save the flipped file accordingly.

Look at the following snippet to get an idea.

import os
import cv2

directory = ''

for file in os.listdir(directory):
    img = cv2.imread(directory + file)
    horizontal_img = cv2.flip( img, 0 )

    #saving now
    cv2.imwrite(file + '_flip' + '.jpg', horizontal_img)

Hope this helps.
