This is not an HTML problem, but an image design problem.
There are three approaches you could use:
1. create a background image for the image (this may need some kind of
layering technique) that extends the image gracefully to the right.
Examples:
the image on top of the page http://hothaus.de/greg-tour-2004
There is a background image there that extends the right edge of that
image ad infinitum.
2. edit the image such that its right edge blends seamlessly with its
left edge. This requires a suitable image plus some photoshop (and the
like) experience.
Examples:
An image of ship loading cranes halfway down the page:
http://hothaus.de/greg-tour-2005/ua1.htm
Image of a power plant, 60% down the page:
http://hothaus.de/greg-tour-2004/roman3.htm
panorama of venice, 50% down the page:
http://hothaus.de/greg-tour-2004/venice.htm
3. Use a *very* wide image with less significant content in the right
third. Such an image can be created in photoshop by copying the
rightmost 20% of an image, scaling it horizontally to some excessive
width and pasting it back to the right of the original image. Again,
this requires a suitable image to begin with.
Example:
