        public static Byte[] ToArray<TPixel>(this Image<TPixel> image, IImageFormat imageFormat) where TPixel : struct, IPixel<TPixel>
        {
            using (var memoryStream = new MemoryStream())
            {
                var imageEncoder = image.GetConfiguration().ImageFormatsManager.FindEncoder(imageFormat);
                image.Save(memoryStream, imageEncoder);
                return memoryStream.ToArray();
            }
        }
    }
}

Usage example:

var image = Image.Load<Rgba32>("c:\\temp\\myimage.jpg");

var pngBytes = image.ToArray(PngFormat.Instance);
