Darken CSS background image? [duplicate]

Question

You can use the CSS3 Linear Gradient property along with your background-image like this:

#landing-wrapper {
    display:table;
    width:100%;
    background: linear-gradient( rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5), rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) ), url('landingpagepic.jpg');
    background-position:center top;
    height:350px;
}

Here's a demo:

#landing-wrapper {
  display: table;
  width: 100%;
  background: linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5), rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)), url('http://placehold.it/350x150');
  background-position: center top;
  height: 350px;
  color: white;
}

<div id="landing-wrapper">Lorem ipsum dolor ismet.</div>
