I've seen this happen in a number of places when uploading images. The
basic issue is that there are two ways to save a "rotated" image: save the
raster data in the correct orientation and without metadata, or save the
raster data in its "native" orientation and set the metadata value to
indicate the desired rotation. The problem is that some software
implementations still do not look at the metadata field and just display
the raw raster image. So the photo may appear rotated correctly in one
place and not rotated in another!
