I keep getting a bummer alert, even when i think my code is correctly written, what could be wrong?

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">

On the third image, you haven't assigned a value for the alt attribute. That might be tripping the challenge engine up. Try this instead:

<img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt="">

No problem, we all have to start somewhere. :) Also, you'll probably start having a lot more fun once you get past HTML and CSS.
