Traditionally Workbenches have the main Vise on the left to make room for a Tail Vise on right, works great as a righthanded person.
However with how your Bench seems to be positioned you should consider moving it to the right otherwise you might run into problems clamping bigger pieces, a tail vise is out of the question then.
If at all possible id advise do not put the bench into a corner, tail vise needs space to open, normal vise with bigger/longer pieces needs space aswell. Walls in the way can be quite the annoyance as i can attest to.
