Every pixel traces a real light ray bent by curved spacetime. The gas rides real orbits — inner rings lap the outer, so a bright clump is sheared into a trailing spiral, not painted on. Inside the ISCO matter can no longer hold an orbit and plunges, redshifting to black at the horizon. Spin switches from Schwarzschild to a rotating Kerr hole: space itself is dragged around (frame-dragging), the shadow turns lop-sided, and the inner edge (ISCO) is pulled inward. Colour and brightness use the exact combined shift — gravity, Doppler and frame-drag together. The glow is real HDR bloom.
