With N172 pose descriptions, there is a somewhat complicated system that goes something like this...when the reference is to a part of the subject's body, the description is from that perspective (ie. bat on left shoulder = the player's left shoulder...not on the viewer's left). However, in terms of other directions (ie. looking left, leaning left, etc.) it is described from the viewer's perspective...so Watch is looking to the viewer's left.

Get it ...I know, it is maybe unduly complicated...

(And in truth, the Burnam description is redundant, since there is only the one pose...no need for the distinction provided by the description.)

Cheers,
Blair
