I can't find my mistake

index.html

  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">

  </head>
  <body>

Hey Alexis,

While there is technically nothing wrong with the HTML you have, it is not what the challenged asked you to do. The second line of the instructions explicitly state to "Leave the alt attributes blank, and don’t add any captions or links. Just the images!" In your HTML you have added links. The only thing that should be between the <li> tags is

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

Once you delete the links (<a> tags) for all three, you will be good to go!

Keep Coding! :)

sorry, didn't notice it was a challenge.. and like jason said, your code is actually correct but the challenges are very specific and have to be followed exactly as they want done.
