I've included the image tag that displays"img/numbers-01.jpg" but I keep getting an error message.

I'm not really sure what I'm missing but I can't seem to get past this challenge.

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>

Hey Delshaun,

Try removing the <a href> and the </a>, so it's like the following:

...html <section> <ul> <li> <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""> </li> <li> <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt=""> </li> <li> <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt=""> </li> </ul> </section> ...

The is no a tag in this challenge

<section>
<!-- inside the section -->
  <ul>
<!-- create a <ul> -->
<!-- and 3 <li> items -->
    <li>
<!-- inside <li> add <img> -->
      <img scr='img/numbers-01.jpg'>
    </li>
    ···
<!-- follow the pattern -->
  </ul>
</section>

In the future, when you want to turn images into links, reference the img src only once. Inside the img tag and wrap it within a elements. Like this:

<a>
  <img src="path/to/image.type">
</a>
