A method of photographic color image formation is disclosed. The method gives a color photographic image having high preservability under a condition with a lowered replenishing amount of developer. The method comprises the following steps; (1) imagewise exposing to light a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material which comprises a support having thereon a silver halide emulsion layer, (2) developing the exposed light-sensitive material with a color developer, (3) bleach-fixing the developed light-sensitive material with a bleach-fixer, and (4) washing the bleach-fixed light-sensitive material, In the above method, the silver halide emulsion layer contains a specified yellow coupler having a molecular weight of not more than 800 and a specified antifungal agent. The developing step is carried out for a time not more than 25 seconds and developer is replenished with a developer replenisher in a ratio of from 20 ml to 150 ml per square meter of light-sensitive material developed the developer. The total time of the developing step, bleach-fixing step and washing step is not more than 2 minutes.
