Popis: We study the general relativistic motion of a bright spot in a jet from an accreting black hole. The corresponding lensed images of the moving bright spot are calculated numerically in discrete time intervals along the bright spot trajectory in the Kerr space-time framework. As representative examples, we consider the cases of supermassive black holes SgrA* and M87*. Astrophysical observations of the moving bright spots in the jets from black holes provides the unique possibility for the verification of different gravitation theories in the strong field limit.
