Correct,
and likewise anything from outside of our local dimension would appear as (nearly) 2 dimensional
As far as being an after effect,
it was explained to me as a metaphor:
When one strikes a match, there is the light(energy)
and there is the soot(gravity)
In this case, however, the soot is a liquid, not a dust
test:
different densities of gravity bend light the same way water bends light/affects weight(mass)
consider it.
