Example 1:

# Import library from Image 
from wand.image import Image

# Import the image
with Image(filename ='../geeksforgeeks.png') as image:
    # Clone the image in order to process
    with image.clone() as white_threshold:
        # Invoke white_threshold function with "Green" color
        white_threshold.white_threshold("green")
        # Save the image
        white_threshold.save(filename ='white_threshold1.jpg')

Output:

Example 2:

Python3

# Import libraries from the wand  
from wand.image import Image
from wand.drawing import Drawing
from wand.color import Color

with Drawing() as draw:
    # Set Stroke color the circle to black
    draw.stroke_color = Color('black')
    # Set Width of the circle to 2 
    draw.stroke_width = 1
    # Set the fill color to 'White (# FFFFFF)'
    draw.fill_color = Color('white')

    # Invoke Circle function with center at 50, 50 and radius 25
    draw.circle((200, 200), # Center point
                (100, 100)) # Perimeter point
    # Set the font style
    draw.font = '../Helvetica.ttf'
    # Set the font size 
    draw.font_size = 30
    
    with Image(width = 400, height = 400, background = Color('# 45ff33')) as pic:
        # Set the text and its location
        draw.text(int(pic.width / 3), int(pic.height / 2), 'GeeksForGeeks !')
        # Draw the picture
        draw(pic)
        # Invoke white_threshold function with "red" color
        pic.white_threshold("red")
        # Save the image 
        pic.save(filename ='white_threshold2.jpg')
