Upload jpg file into Canvas and jpg display sideway

[ShuLiKuo]

 I submitted photo in jpg format thru Canvas for my class 3 of them displayed sideways. 

I uploaded them one by one without any change.  I do not think there is any way to make the change after uploading them 

Could you please help to find out why these 3 photos displayed sideways and what is the solution to fix this problem?  

I did not see any problem when I uploaded / submitted the same files through the Discussion web site.

Thanks in advance to share your experience.

Were the photos taken on a phone turned sideways? I haven't run into this problem in Canvas specifically, but I have seen this happen in other software and in that case the issue stemmed from the way the image data is created/read on the phone. As I recall (it was quite a while ago), I had to rotate the image and resave it before uploading it for the software to display in the orientation I wanted.

I agree with comments from @stewartk1.  If you are using an iPhone, for example, you can also use the volume buttons on the side of your phone to take a photo instead of using the white button displayed on the phone itself.  That's one possible way to get the photo to be right-side-up.  If that still doesn't work, then open up the photo on your computer using a program like Windows Paint (or whatever the equivalent would be on a Mac).  You may need to rotate the photo in that program.  Then, save the photo.  It should upload fine into Canvas for you.
