Spicy bit of photography? (3)
I believe the answer is:
hot
'spicy' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'bit of photography?' is the wordplay.
'bit of' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'HOT' is hidden in the letters of 'photography'.
(Other definitions for hot that I've seen before include "Flaming - spicy" , "'Strike while the iron is ...'" , "Flaming - stolen" , "Angry or very warm" , "(Of food) spicy" .)
