Patent ID: 7087365

Claim:
A method for forming images, the method comprising the steps of: imagewise exposing a silver halide color photographic photosensitive material having, on a support, photographic constituent layers comprising at least one layer each of a blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a yellow dye forming coupler, a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a magenta dye forming coupler, a red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a cyan dye forming coupler, and a non-photosensitive hydrophilic colloid layer; and subjecting the exposed silver halide color photographic photosensitive material to developing processing including a color developing step, a bleach-fix step and a rinsing step; wherein, the blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer contains a silver halide emulsion with a silver chloride content of 90 mol % or more containing at least one member selected from the spectral sensitizing dyes represented by the following general formula (VI), and the calcium content in the rinse solution used for the rinsing step is 5 mg/l or less; (where R 1 and R 2 each independently represents a sulfopropyl group; A represents a counter ion required for balancing electric charges of a dye molecule; X 1 and X 2 each independently represents O; Z 1 represents a 5-substituted pyrrole; and Z 2 represents a 5-chlorine atom).
