Python – Combine 3 separate numpy arrays to an RGB image in Python

So I have a set of data which I am able to convert to form separate numpy arrays of R, G, B bands. Now I need to combine them to form an RGB image.

I tried 'Image' to do the job but it requires 'mode' to be attributed.

I tried to do a trick. I would use Image.fromarray() to take the array to image but it attains 'F' mode by default when Image.merge requires 'L' mode images to merge. If I would declare the attribute of array in fromarray() to 'L' at first place, all the R G B images become distorted.

But, if I save the images and then open them and then merge, it works fine. Image reads the image with 'L' mode.

Now I have two issues.

First, I dont think it is an elegant way of doing the work. So if anyone knows the better way of doing it, please tell

Secondly, Image.SAVE is not working properly. Following are the errors I face:

In [7]: Image.SAVE(imagefile, 'JPEG')
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)

/media/New Volume/Documents/My own works/ISAC/SAMPLES/<ipython console> in <module>()

TypeError: 'dict' object is not callable

Please suggest solutions.

And please mind that the image is around 4000×4000 size array.
