Set the <img> element's src attribute to a path that goes one level out of the current folder and inside a folder named
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Portfolio Page</title>

553 PointsHeya Fidelis Chime! Learning to work with relative file paths can be really tricky at first, because it uses syntax that is usually pretty unfamiliar or uncommon in your day-to-day computer use!
As Rick Gleitz has mentioned, you might want to step back a few videos and watch the first video of this stage. It will help get you a bit more familiar with the approaches we use in HTML. As a quick reminder, to link to a target file in the directory above the current reference point (the invoking HTML file), you can prefix two dots to the file path. For instance, if we were to begin a file path with ../ then we would be looking inside the immediate parent directory.
Either way - the best way to get familiar with this process is just to practice, experiment, and see what works. Hope this helps!

I recommend rewatching the first video of this stage. Keep in mind that paths work the same for <img> tags as they do for <a> tags. Hope this helps.
