Duplicate of Are different frequencies of light lensed differently during gravitational lensing a bit like refraction?
Sep 18, 2021 at 23:32 comment added PM 2Ring OTOH, all energy contributes to spacetime curvature, but a beam of light needs to be insanely intense to have a measurable impact on the spacetime curvature in its vicinity.
Sep 18, 2021 at 23:25 comment added PM 2Ring The answers in those linked questions state that the photon trajectory is computed from the spacetime curvature. The photon energy isn't relevant to those equations. FWIW, here's a recent Astronomy answer with some nice animated plots of photon trajectories near a Schwarzschild black hole. Also see this recent Nature article, Divergent reflections around the photon sphere of a black hole.
