# CGImagePropertyOrientation.down

The encoded image data is rotated 180° from the image’s intended display orientation.

## Declaration

```swift
case down
```

## Discussion

Discussion The (x,y) pixel coordinates of the origin point (0,0) represent the rightmost column and bottom row, respectively. Pixel (x,y) positions increase right-to-left, bottom-to-top. If an image is encoded with this orientation, then displayed by software unaware of orientation metadata, the image appears rotated 180°.
