As you are modifying the image doing ALL other work on the image at the
same time is a good idea.  That includes removing rotations, cropping
and resizing.

Add the option -auto-orient after reading the image before adding the
caption to the photo, or any other operation.

This will rotate the image and adjust the orientation attribute
appropriately.
