Abstract
A silver halide color photographic material having at least one silver halide emulsion layer on a reflective support is, after having been imagewise exposed, subjected to color development with a color developer which does not substantially contain benzyl alcohol and which contains a bromide ion in an amount of 4.times.10.sup.-3 mol/liter or less, for a period of time of 2 minutes or less, to obtain a color images with a high colored density. The silver halide color photographic material specifically has at least one silver chlorobromide emulsion layer which does not substantially contain silver iodide and which contains silver chloride in an amount of 50 mol % or more. In the color images thus formed by the present process, the colored density is high and the fog is less.
