TIFF.write_image writes incorrect ORIENTATION tag

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  Write image data using TIFF.open(filename, 'w').write(data)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The created diff file has orientation 6 (

The offending lines are in libtiff_ctypes.py, lines 403, 420, and 453:

self.SetField(TIFFTAG_ORIENTATION, ORIENTATION_RIGHTTOP)

The correct value is 1, not 6.  See, for example,

http://www.awaresystems.be/imaging/tiff/tifftags/orientation.html

Note also that simply not setting the orientation tag also results in a correct 
image.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

pylibtiff 0.1svn, Linux Ubuntu 10.10
