Crossword Genius

A crack in the picture (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shot

This clue is a double definition.

'a crack' is the first definition.
(I know this)

'picture' is the second definition.
(I know that shot is a type of picture)

'in the' is the link.

(Other definitions for shot that I've seen before include "Crack" , "Small drink of spirits" , "Try -- ammunition" , "Zoomed" , "Sent a bullet" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and the Evening Standard.
