Image orientation looks correct on an iPhone. There must be some auto-rotation going on here.

It's because the photo was taken in Portrait mode, but smartphones automatically add an EXIF tag to the image that specifies the image should be rotated.
e.g. the above image has a tag that says "Orientation : Rotate 90 CW"
Smartphone web browsers look at the EXIF data and automatically rotate the image, but most desktop web browsers don't. As a result it looks wrong unless you're on a smartphone.
The fix (for now) is to strip EXIF tags off the image, and rotate the image (by actually changing the pixels rather than using a tag) if required.
I use imagemagick (on Linux) to achieve this but there are handy tools for all platforms.
Stripping EXIF tags is often recommended for privacy reasons too - the above image also has its exact GPS location embedded.
Not a problem for a public image like that, but something to be aware of if you're posting happy snaps of your Tesla or HPWC at home and don't necessarily want other people to know exactly where you live.

Hi r1nce welcome to the forums.
These are (mostly) from Instagram so it's not LGGD taking the photos
He just posts them here.Hi r1nce welcome to the forums.

Ahhh, that makes more sense.
Was a very odd shot of the car, too. *shrug*

Hi r1nce, as Timpoo said all the photos on this thread are just trawled from public Instagram feeds and public Facebook car spotting pages. At the moment it seems people are pretty quick to post shots of Teslas they see in Australia.
There are 78 different cars now posted on this thread out of over 200 that have been registered in Australia to date.
Oh, and if NTE5LA is your car it has been posted on Instagram many times already.

Hi r1nce, welcome to TMC.
I see you're in Melbourne, as you have just taken delivery can you tell me if they have started delivering in the Melbourne Service Centre yet?
Which one of the pictures is your car?
Hope you got an invite to the opening tomorrow night.
Fair enough. It was a little... something, to see my car in this forum so quickly after having received delivery. Any hints on the public facebook and instagram pages these are being sourced from? I wouldn't mind seeing if there are more, for vanity's sake. =)

Thanks.
Ours was the first vehicle delivered out of the Richmond centre, but there was still plenty of work going on in the general surrounds when we received delivery.
Yep, my wife and I will be there tomorrow. See you there. =)
