Abstract
A method for forming color images comprising processing a photographic element containing imagewise distributed silver in the presence of a polymer containing at least 30 mol % vinyl pyridines, a dye and an oxidizing agent to thereby oxidation-bleach the dye. Color images having excellent light fastness, heat resistance and humidity resistance are obtained.

A method for forming color images which comprises exposing a color photographic light-sensitive element containing a dye, a polymer containing at least 30 mol% of a vinylpyridine represented by the formula:
- ##STR11## wherein R is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group and silver halide, forming developed silver imagewise by development processing and then processing with an aqueous solution containing peroxoic acids or salt thereof to thereby oxidatively bleach said dye.
