How to position a image anywhere on the page

I am having trouble positioning a image further down the page. Right now it ends up pushing the rest of the content down the page and it stays in the top left hand corner. How can I position the image anywhere on the page? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have attached the html and CSS. As you can see the image just pushes the rest of the text down rather than the image being at the bottom of the page. HTML- <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>navbar</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css"> <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

 <div id="rectangle">
  </div>

 <div id="rectangle2">
 </div>

 <div id="rectangle3">
</div>

<div id="blueline">
</div>

<div>
<img src="beginnerimage.jpg" alt="">
</div>

</head> <body> <ul class="nav"> <li><a href="#">PERSONAL/ONLINE TRAINING</a></li> <li><a href="#">EBOOKS</a></li> <li><a href="#">INSTAGRAM SHOUTOUTS</a></li> <li><a href="#">APPS</a></li> <li><a href="#">PRODUCTS</a></li> </ul>

<ul class="options"> <li><a href="#">BEGINNER</a></li> <li><a href="#">ADVANCED</a></li> <li><a href="#">BUNDLE</a></li> </ul>

Hi, I placed the image under the <h5> tag and it brought the image to the bottom of the page so thanks for that. I am still having trouble moving the image exactly where I want tit under the text. I attached the HTML5 and CSS code below. Thanks in advance. HTML5- <div> <img src="beginnerimage.jpg" alt=""> </div

CSS- img { max-width: 50%; margin:0px; margin-top: 20px; }
