Thanks for the picture.

There’s an illustration at the source that explains what we’re seeing and here’s the caption:

Gravity bends light from the disc around the black hole, giving it the appearance of a halo regardless of what angle it is viewed from.

Not exactly like the “stand-in” image used to hype the reveal on blogs.

But it’s a photo of a black....hole, so cant complain too much.
