[SOLVED] Opaque background?

Hi people, heres what is probably a very basic question for you

On the site, http://www.hughfrostgardendesign.co.uk/, how is it he was got the section to be transparent and to semi show the grass behind it?

Is it done using a semi transparent image or just using CSS?

Any help or places explaining this or a similar technique would be appreciated.

thanks a lot

craig
