Photographing the execution (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shooting

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'photographing' is the first definition.
('shoot' can be a synonym of 'photograph')

'execution' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'the' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for shooting that I've seen before include "Making film" , "- Jacket; - star" , "sort of star?" , "on target" , "Firing" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
