Image Cut Out / Over Laping DIV?

Hi All,

Sorry to be really vague but I am trying to figure out how people create this little triangle piece of an image remaining white the rest is not there.

I know this doesn't really make sense but for instance you can see it on the bottom of the hero section of www.tribalmedia.co.uk

can someone please suggest a way to gain this effect.

Thanks in advance

It's just an image with an arrow shaped notch out of it, then saved as a transparent png. This is then laid over the top of the city scape image and the transparent part of the image is what produces the effect.
