why does Guil use img for second row of photos?

In about 5:50 of this video, Guil targets the second row of photos on hover state using .photo:hover img {}

I'm not really sure why he added the img at the end. this seems new to me. Does anyone have any insight into this?

thank you!

I think I get it now....the .photo is for the div, and then he's targeting the actual photo with img. the naming there had me confused for a second!

Kudos for figuring out yourself! And yes he's targeting the img element inside the class named "photo". He could have named that class just about anything. For example: class = "everyoneLovesGuil". But he named it photo, because we tend to name our code in things that make sense. However, when starting out sometimes it can be difficult to sort out class names, IDs and elements. Hang in there, and it'll become second nature in no time!
