A simple way to load images is using either a for loop or a simple Python list-comprehension

import os
from PIL import Image

input_dir = "/home/zain/Downloads/natural-image/natural_images/"

# load images one after another - useful for images one by one
for image in os.listdir(input_dir):
    img = Image.open(os.path.join(input_dir, image))
    # do whatever you like to do with the img

# load all images data at in to list
image_list = [Image.open(os.path.join(input_dir, image)) for image in os.listdir(input_dir)]
