Displays a text on top of an image using an overlay.
- Use `backdrop-filter` to apply a `blur(14px)` and `brightness(80%)` effect. This makes text readable regardless of background image and color.
```html
<div>
<h3 class="text-overlay">Hello, World</h3>
<img src="https://picsum.photos/id/1050/1200/800">
</div>
```
```css
div {
position: relative;
}
.text-overlay {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
padding: 1rem;
font-size: 2rem;
font-weight: 300;
color: white;
backdrop-filter: blur(14px) brightness(80%);
}
```
