Hello, I've downloaded openCV for python and am using it on Microsoft Visual Studio and am trying to use the tutorials. Often, they fetch a picture,

src2 = cv.imread(cv.samples.findFile('LinuxLogo.jpg'))

The program runs, but gives an error:

  Message=OpenCV(4.1.1) C:\projects\opencv-python\opencv\modules\core\src\utils\samples.cpp:62: error: (-2:Unspecified error) OpenCV samples: Can't find required data file: LinuxLogo.jpg in function 'cv::samples::findFile'

  Source=C:\Users\tiern\source\repos\OpenCV-Dilation\OpenCV_Dilation.py
  StackTrace:
  File "C:\Users\tiern\source\repos\OpenCV-Dilation\OpenCV_Dilation.py", line 48, in <module>
    src = cv.imread(cv.samples.findFile(args.input))

If you could explain how I could load in pictures, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you!
