TUTORIAL PART 2 - ORIENTATION

Orientation - Vertical and Horizontal shots

I'm still amazed when I'm on the MLS and still see that agents have uploaded vertical photos that haven't been rotated. I suppose they feel that something is better than nothing, and while I generally agree with that, it doesn't say much to home sellers or buyers when they see these!

The tool you want here will likely be named 'Rotate' or 'Orientation' and you'll want to use it in situations like the one shown above, when you need to change the vertical or horizontal orientation of a photo.

In my program, the tool needed is found under the 'Image' drop down menu, and it's called 'Rotate Canvas'. From there I can select whether I want 90-degrees clockwise, counter-clockwise, or a horizontal or vertical 'flip'.

Note: In the boat business, I often horizontally flipped an exterior boat leader shot so that it would appear to be 'coming into' the page rather than 'leaving it'...
