Abstract
A method of forming an image comprising heating a light-sensitive material having at least a light-sensitive silver halide, a binder and a dye releasing redox compound which is capable of reducing the light-sensitive silver halide and is capable of reacting with the light-sensitive silver halide by heating to release a hydrophilic diffusible dye on a support after or simultaneously with imagewise exposure in the presence of water and a base and/or a base precursor to form a mobile dye and transferring the mobile dye to a dye fixing layer at the time of heating for development. In accordance with the method of the present invention, a clear color image having a high density and low fog can be obtained in a short time by a simple procedure.
