We travel to a different location in space, near a black hole where we know Length contraction has acted upon our ruler. It has contracted our rulers length. C. So now we hold up our shortened ruler to measure a passing photons velocity. But the odd thing is, even though we know our ruler has shortened in length, we get the same resulting photon velocity? If our ruler is a variable, then how can it measure a constant as a constant?

The relativistic length contraction is just a space-time
 projection effect for moving observer. Nothing happens to
 lengths.

Nearby black holes sticks get physically dilated and broken to
 pieces by tidal force.

The length contraction is  somewhat analogical to a distant rod
 length calculated from the distance and the angle
 size.
If the rod is tilted, the  rod seems smaller than it is. Various
 observers would come with the various rod length, depending from
 where they observe it.

For meter and a nearby observer in rest wrt it, it has still the
 same lenght. And for photons, their local  speed wrt locally
 inertial frame is still c.
