The PixelAccess class provides read and write access to
:py:class:`PIL.Image` data at a pixel level.
.. note:: Accessing individual pixels is fairly slow. If you are looping over all of the pixels in an image, there is likely a faster way using other parts of the Pillow API.

:mod:`~PIL.Image`, :mod:`~PIL.ImageChops` and :mod:`~PIL.ImageOps`
have methods for many standard operations. If you wish to perform
a custom mapping, check out :py:meth:`~PIL.Image.Image.point`.
