The photographic layer contains an indole compound represented by the general formula (I): ##STR1## wherein PUG represents a photographically useful group, Ball represents an organic group which has enough molecular weight and/or disposition to render the compound non-diffusible during processing of the photographic recording material with an alkaline medium and wherein the Ball contains a nitrogen atom which is directly attached to the 5th or 6th position of the indole ring. R.sub.1 represents a halogen atom or a monovalent organic group. R.sub.2 represents a hydrogen atom or a low molecular group attached, through a carbon atom, to the 2nd position of the indole ring. "m" represents an integer of zero to 3.
