Picture that's the same, ruined (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

snapshot

'picture' is the definition.
(snapshot is a kind of picture)

'that's the same ruined' is the wordplay.
'that's the same' becomes 'snap' (as in the card game).
'ruined' becomes 'shot' (I've seen this before).
'snap'+'shot'='SNAPSHOT'

(Other definitions for snapshot that I've seen before include "Bit of camerawork" , "Quick photo" , "image" , "Pan hosts over casual photo" , "Informal photo" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
