When it comes to orientation in pictures, the most crude way of looking at orientation is that horizonal things should be photographed in landscape mode, people should be photographed in portrait mode. I find it more useful to think in terms of eye movement and counterpoints in the scene. Ideally, the best photographs have some counterpoint that goes against the orientation and even includes a diagonal.
