Adding href and src items to a list

The Workspace checker is flagging the items inside my <a href = ... </a> and I don't know why.

The "hints" tab tells me to check my spelling and syntax but I'm pretty sure I typed it correctly.

I even copy/pasted directly from the downloaded project file! Can someone look at my code and tell me what in the world the Workspace wants?

index.html
<!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>
          <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
            <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
          </a>
        </li>
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg">
            <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
          </a>
        </li>
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-06.jpg">
            <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt="">

I got the answer by skipping forward. The exercise didn't want me to add a hyperlink ref.

<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>

Hmmm, can't see any problems... what's the error you are getting now?

Pshh. Yeah, I think I'm just going to skip that exercise. I hope I still get the badge for it afterwards.

Lol, sorry :/ Try restarting it
