Storm as NY photo is doctored (7)
I believe the answer is:
typhoon
'storm' is the definition.
(typhoon is a kind of storm)
'ny photo is doctored' is the wordplay.
'is doctored' indicates anagramming the letters.
'ny'+'photo'='nyphoto'
'nyphoto' with letters rearranged gives 'TYPHOON'.
'as' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for typhoon that I've seen before include "Pacific hurricane" , "severe blow" , "Tropical cyclone" , "Cyclonic sea storm" , "Pacific tropical storm" .)
