I'm setting the path to the /img/logo.png, however, I am getting this wrong?

I've tried .../img/logo.png, and /logo.png but neither are working to set the image file back into a img folder.

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Portfolio Page</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <img src="/img/logo.png" alt="Site logo">
    <ul>
      <li><a href="">Home</a></li>
      <li><a href="">Portfolio</a></li>                
    </ul>
    <h1 id="portfolio">My Portfolio</h1>
  </body>
</html>

The challenge is asking you to navigate out one directory before moving in to the img folder. To do this you need to use ../ to navigate out a folder first:

<img src="../img/logo.png" alt="Site logo">

Notice how I navigate out of whatever folder I am currently in (the code challenge doesn't tell you what folder this is), then I navigate into the img folder, then I select the image file.
