img src problems

I am having trouble with the Images section on the HTML Deep Dive section. I can't seem to get the picture I have to display on the website. This is the code I used on sublime text editor: 

<!DOCTYPE HTML> 
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8"
<title>My Page</title>
</head>
<body> 

<img src="Penguins.JPEG">

</body>
</html>

The picture is just a sample picture that came with Windows.

hm i don't know your file source but as a lucky guess, check the case of your file name in the windows explorer - if it is penguins.jpeg or Penguins.JPEG or what other variant might be used. best regards Ralf

Okay. Thank you Ralf. I found that the problem is that the JPEG has be written as .jpg I found that by doing like you said looking properties of the actual picture. :)

Peter G. -

It should be noted that in the closing tag of the meta element is missing from the code your posted.

Good eye James. I saw that as a few seconds after the post. It was the .jpg that I was having trouble with. Thank you though James. I appreciate it. :)
