Ross

I believe the answer is:

exposure

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'possibly indecent amount' is the definition.
'exposure' can be an answer for 'amount' (exposure is a kind of amount). I am not sure about the 'possibly indecent' bit.

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for exposure that I've seen before include "could cause one's death" , "O pure sex! (anag.)" , "Disclosure (by camera?)" , "Disclosure - made by a photographer?" , "Laying open to public view" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
