Hi Ricarrdo.

Welcome to Treehouse! :)

"give the image tag a src attribute with a file of "image /spain jpg"

Let's look at the tag in question.

<img alt="A picture of me in Spain">

This is your image tag <img>. It's a self closing tag and takes some "parameters" called Attributes. You've been given one (or maybe you added it as part of the challenge) called alt which is an opportunity to provide supporting text to browsers or a tooltip, if for whatever reason the image doesn't show up in the browser.

The attribute you're being asked to provide is the src. It takes an absolute or relative path from the location of the HTML document which is being served. So "image/spain.jpg" is not the full path so it is a relative path.

Simply add it to your image tag and hopefully the image will show.

As so.

<img alt="A picture of me in Spain" src="image/spain.jpg">
