Chandos,
Stay with the horizontal it's a very strong visual, certainly without 
question the better of the two by a landslide!

It grabs and holds the viewer. The vertical is nothing more than a tourist 
happy snap of no consequence. Something like... "here we are at the fife and 
drum event... click next slide!" And if you blink and don't see it you wont 
have missed anything.
