2,753 PointsIf I understand correctly what you're doing is trying to put a picture as a link to the same picture right?
One of the posibilities why your code doesn't work is because maybe your IMG_2939.jpg file is not in the same folder as your HTML file.

The other way is to add the image to a folder in your editor, you can call the folder for example images. and you'll write the code like this <img src="images/(your-pictures- name.png)">
