loadImage("http://relinjose.com/directory/filename.png");

Here you go

void loadImage(String image_location) {
    URL imageURL = null;
    if (image_location != null) {
        try {
            imageURL = new URL(image_location);         
            HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) imageURL
                    .openConnection();
            connection.setDoInput(true);
            connection.connect();
            InputStream inputStream = connection.getInputStream();
            bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(inputStream);// Convert to bitmap
            ivdpfirst.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    } else {
        //set any default
    }
}
