Crossword Genius

Clever at shining? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bright

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'clever' is the first definition.
(bright can mean clever or gifted)

'shining?' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)

'at' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for bright that I've seen before include "Lustrous, shining" , "Effulgent" , "Clever - dazzling" , "Jolly" , "Cheerful or quick-witted" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
