摘要
The purpose of this paper is twofold - to demonstrate that in the gravitational redshift it is the frequency a photon that is constant, and to describe the mechanism responsible for the change of its wavelength.

备注
4 pages, LaTeX; As it turns out that an overlooked consequence of Einstein's elevator thought experiment - that the propagation of light in a gravitational field is anisotropic - can be rigorously derived in the framework of general relativity, the gravitational redshift is now discussed in terms of that consequence
