There's no up or down in space. There should be an equal amount of pics showing Antarctica as the north pole. But every pic of earth from space shows the world as canada being at the top and not Australia. if you search 'earth from space upside down' all you get is people making fake images of what the earth would look like if it's upside down.

Also all of these earth pics are taken from afar so it's not due to satellites being launched from northern hemisphere and thus taking the pic at that angle.

If the sun was behind the Earth, the camera would be in the shadow, like an eclipse. That would make a horrible picture of the Earth. If you don't understand the concept, consider maybe the pictures were taken at night.

Speaking of night, why are most pictures taken in the day time? Probably another conspiracy to hide the fact that night doesn't exist. How many times have you stayed up all night to be sure it's really dark all that time? Most people are asleep, literally and figuratively. /s

I was riffing off the OP's hilarious "orientation of a photo" logic.
