According to Apple's Documentation : Providing Launch Images for Different Orientations ,

Each orientation-specific launch image must include a special modifier string in its filename. The format for orientation-specific launch image filenames is as follows:

<basename><orientation_modifier><scale_modifier><device_modifier>.png

Eg :

1)    Default-Portrait.png
2)    Default-PortraitUpsideDown.png
3)    Default-Landscape.png
4)    Default-LandscapeLeft.png
5)    Default-LandscapeRight.png

Note : These modifiers are supported for launch images used in iPad apps only.

So you have to change your Image according to the Orientation for iPhone 5.

Two ways to do that :

1) Rotating the Splash Image to 90 Degree.

2) Inverting the Dimensions (320 * 480 -> 480 * 320).

From Apple doc, landscapes launch screens are supported for iPad only.

For iPhone and iPod Touch, you need to create a portrait launch screen that can be your 90°-oriented landscape launch screen. I would apply a clockwise rotation rather than a counter-clockwise rotation (ie so that on a desktop, you need to bend your head on the right to see the image with the correct orientation).
