I'm trying to use Tesseract to read an image, but it returns gibberish. I know I need to do some pre-processing, but what I have found online doesn't seem to work with my image. I tried [this](https://stackoverflow.com/a/43493383/11024567) answer to turn the picture from black background/white letters to white background/black letters without success.

This is the picture.

And my simple code:

```
from PIL import Image
import pytesseract

pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = r'D:\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract'

img = Image.open("2020-01-25_17-57-49_UTC.jpg")
print(pytesseract.image_to_string(img))

```
