## Images
In addition to the [Figure Shortcode]({{< ref "../../docs/shortcodes#figure" >}}), you can define images using the following Markdown syntax:
```md
```
You can also leverage Hugos ['Markdown attributes'](https://gohugo.io/content-management/markdown-attributes/) feature to add custom attributes to the created HTML element.
For example, to set the width of an image to 50%:
```md
{style="width:50%;"}
```
{style="width:50%;"}
Note that the 'Markdown attributes' feature requires configuration of the Goldmark renderer.
See the Hugo [documentation](https://gohugo.io/content-management/markdown-attributes/) for more information.
