A long exposure? (5)
I believe the answer is:
strip
'a long exposure?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?
This is all the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for strip that I've seen before include "Divest - team's garb" , "every football club needs" , "Set of football clothes" , "Series of cartoon pictures - undress salaciously" , "Band; unclothe" .)
