title: Python Pil Change GreyScale Tif To RGB
body: <p>I have a greyscale TIF File. I need to convert it to RGB/ read from it in a way I can work with it.</p>
  
  <pre><code>img = Image.open(GIF_FILENAME)
  rgbimg = img.convert('RGB')
  for i in range(5):
      print rgbimg.getpixel((i, 0))
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The convert.("RGB") will automatically make everything (255,255,255) even though the picture is a really dark mostly black picture.</p>
  
  <p>If I just read the greyscale numbers I get numbers from around 1400 to 1900.</p>
  
  <p>I need to also save a copy of the picture as a RGB Jpeg.
  Picture in question:  [Here]: <a href="http://imgur.com/kEwfFs3" rel="noreferrer">http://imgur.com/kEwfFs3</a></p>
  
  <p>How would I go along doing this?</p>
