I can't figure out what I am doing wrong?

Will somebody look at this and see if you can figure out what I am doing wrong and why it won't let me pass?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">

Get rid of your a href links for the images. This code let me pass.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>
    </header>
    <section>
      <ul>
        <li><img src="img/numbers-01.jpg"></li>
        <li><img src="img/numbers-02.jpg"></li>

You have to remove the links at the images! You are not supposed to use the "a" tag. It should only be,

<img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
