I've noticed on occasion that my images post sideways when using the Img tag. Is there any rhyme or reason or a way to correct?

The images are captured and shown in portrait mode on my phone and my online photo storage.

That's because the image is actually sideways. Most devices and some online image hosts will correct for it, and rotate it for you while viewing. But the actual image file itself is really sideways. Only real way to correct it is use an image editor to rotate it 90 degrees.
So it goes...
