 ## Displaying with Matplotlib
-In the Python bindings of OpenCV, images are represented as NumPy arrays in BGR order. This works fine when using the `cv2.imshow` function. However, if you intend on using Matplotlib, the `plt.imshow` function assumes the image is in RGB order. A simple call to `cv2.cvtColor` will resolve this problem, or you can use the `opencv2matplotlib` conveince function.
