Images of a toroidal accretion flow (ion torus) around a supermassive Kerr black hole located at the galactic centre as seen by an observer on Earth. Confined by the innermost ultra-fine ring of light is the so called black hole silhouette. Top left: BH spin [itex]a_*=0.5<\math>, inc=80°, size=0.3; Top right: BH spin [itex]a_*=0.9<\math>, inc=80°, size=0.3; Bottom left: BH spin [itex]a_*=0.5<\math>, inc=80°, size=0.7; Bottom right: BH spin [itex]a_*=0.5<\math>, inc=40°, size=0.3.
