I fixed these two photos.

Nowadays a lot of camera allow you to take photos upside down or sideways and then as soon as you plug it into your computer, it automatically notices what orientation each photo was taken and then automatically fixes each photo so they are pointing the same way.

But some computers (or phones) don't do this update, and the photo is preserved as side-ways. So for these, I have programmed ATP to fix the orientation of a photo when you upload it.

Worse, though, is that some softwares will fix the photo but not update the internal data of the photo that says it was updated. So when it's uploaded to ATP and my system looks at the photo, it thinks it's in need of a rotate even when it's not. And I suspect that's the case here with your photos, Linda.

I'm not sure exactly what the solution to this is but I'm continuing to look for it. In the meantime I can fix any photo that gets uploaded that has this problem.
