Enigma, not new, resolved in reflection (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

image

'reflection' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'enigma not new resolved' is the wordplay.
'not' indicates named letters should be taken away.
'new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament).
'resolved' indicates anagramming the letters.
'enigma' with 'n' removed is 'eigma'.
'eigma' with letters rearranged gives 'IMAGE'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for image that I've seen before include "Dead ringer" , "Public persona" , "Public impression" , "Likeness U symbol" , "Vision" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
