You pass image_path_dir, i.e. ''C:\Python', to cv.imread, don`t you?

Why don't you use this code?

images = [cv.imread(os.path.join(image_path_dir, imagename)) for imagename in ['sna3.jpg', 'sna1.jpg', 'bag5.jpg', 't2.jpg', 's3.jpg','sn2.jpg', 't2.jpg']]

Try this:

images_paths = [os.path.join(image_path_dir, imagename) for imagename in ['sna3.jpg', 'sna1.jpg', 'bag5.jpg', 't2.jpg', 's3.jpg','sn2.jpg', 't2.jpg']]

image = cv.imread(image_paths)

It is same as @LBerger.

no, @supra56, imread() cannot use a list of images
