# UIImage.Orientation.leftMirrored

The image has been rotated 90° clockwise and flipped horizontally from the orientation of its original pixel data.

```
case leftMirrored
```

## Discussion

If an image is encoded with this orientation, then displayed by software unaware of orientation metadata, the image appears to be horizontally mirrored, then rotated 90° counter-clockwise. (That is, to present the image in its intended orientation, you can rotate it 90° clockwise, then flip horizontally.)
