Hey Derek,

You have a trailing space after numbers-06.jpg and the closing quote mark.

It's also a good idea to watch spacing when writing out the attributes. It's good practice to make sure there are no spaces between (before and after) the equal sign.

Example 

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

There are a few lines where you have a space after the = sign. :)
