Concealed; made indistinct (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

obscured

I believe this is a double definition.

'concealed' is the first definition.
(obscuring is a kind of concealing)

'made indistinct' is the second definition.
('obscure' can be a synonym of 'make indistinct')

(Other definitions for obscured that I've seen before include "Overshadowed or eclipsed" , "Hid from view" , "unnoticed" , "Veiled, hidden" , "Good news from clinic about schoolboy no longer" .)

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