  It is possible with CSS but you cannot add custom CSS with the free plan of wordpress.com

  Hi @tatin05,

  The background image looks bit darker than the original because of linear gradient. You can add below CSS code snippet to get the original image.

  .has-header-image #hero-header:before {
  background: linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 50%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0));
  }

  Let me know if this works for you :)
