A positive image forming method is disclosed. Said method comprises in sequence the steps of subjecting to imagewise exposure a silver halide photographic material having a silver halide emulsion layer containing a non-prefogged internal image forming silver halide, increasing the surface sensitivity of said silver halide in the substantial absence of water and performing development.
