This paper deals with the space-time region, outside a static spherically symmetric object, occupied by a continuous distribution of matter. Integrals of the Einstein--Maxwell equations, with one of the functions in the metric left arbitrary, are used to investigate light tracks; conditions for the existence of circular photon orbits are obtained. Particular attention is paid to the case in which the external matter is homogeneous and the central object is uncharged. (auth)
