An exposing apparatus adapted for exposing a completely dry photosensitive recording medium which produces no waste and uses no developing solution, and which can expose a multicolor photosensitive recording medium quickly to form a clear image free from mixture of colors, and a method for forming high-quality color images with ease using the above exposing apparatus. The exposing apparatus includes a device for transmitting light whose wavelength corresponds to a spectral response of the photosensitive recording medium, which device is interposed between an exposing light source and the photosensitive recording medium, and a device for shielding a heat ray from the exposing light source, which device is interposed between the device for transmitting light whose wavelength corresponds to the spectral response and the exposing light source. The method for forming an image uses such exposing apparatus and forms the image by exposing a heat developed photosensitive recording medium a plurality of times and then heating the exposed photosensitive recording medium substantially uniformly, the heat developed photosensitive recording medium forming a latent image on a photocuring composition by exposure and causing a component having to do with coloring or discoloring by heating to migrate within itself (the recording medium) in accordance with the latent image.
