It doesn't look like you've started yet, and your question is just a copy of the instructions.

Give it your best "good faith" try and then if you have trouble, post your code and be specific about your issue or question.

Hi

the html image tag is the one that starts with <img ...

you just need to put in src after the img, preceded by a space and then assigned it with an equals sign to the url to the image "images/spain.jpg"

You have to add "src" property to img tag. like below:

<img src="image/spain.jpg" alt="a picture of spain" />

I have done this and it's showing it's wrong?

<img scrc="images/spain.jpg"> alt="A picture of me in Spain"> Here is a picture of me in Spain last summer! <a>Go back to the top of the page.</a>

To insure your question is seen by more students, always start a fresh question instead of "piggybacking" onto an old one.

But I happened to notice this one, and I see two issues:

  • you have "scrc" as the attribute name instead of "src"
  • you have a stray ">" symbol between the src and alt attributes in the tag
