In the .photo:hover .overlay rule, write a transform that will move the element up 100% from its original space.

I have tried translateY(100%) and (1em). The prompt still says correct value for translateY needed. Please enlighten me.

style.css 
/* overlay and img transitions ---------- */

.overlay,
img  {
    transition: transform .6s ease-out;
}

/* overlay and img transforms ---------- */

.photo:hover .overlay {
  transform: translateY(1em);
}
.photo:hover img {

}

translateY(100%); moves it down. Try -100% to move it up on the Y axis.

.photo:hover .overlay {
  transform: translateY(-100%);
}
