The other thing to consider (as someone who frequently take a photos of their bike) the common direction has the drive side out! In cycling forums it is sacrilegious to post a photo of your bicycle without showing the drive side.

Beat me to it - but I had the same thought. Most amateur and nearly all professional studio photographs of a bicycle will have it drive side out so I expect this plays some role in it.

> the common direction has the drive side out

Took some searching and sleuthing to actually figure out what "drive side out" means, as I'm just a casual "from A to B" cyclist: apparently this is referring to the side the chainset, chainwheels and all those things are on.
