15. ImageChops multiply


15.1. Multiply

Use the ImageChops.multiply(image1, image2) method to overlay 2 images of the same size.
If an image is multiplied with an image with a solid black image, the result is black.
If an image is multiplied with a solid white image, the image is unaffected.
out = image1 * image2 / MAX
