Pictures not showing up in preview

I'm pretty sure my code is solid but when I go to preview my work the photos don't show up. What am I doing wrong?

You're missing quotes at the end of your href path insider your anchor tags:

 <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg>

try this instead:

 <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">

Hi Sarah, you also should close off the img elements in the footer with >.

Code highlighting was fixed in your post.
