[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. A photographic element comprising a support bearing at least one light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and at least one light insensitive layer, wherein said light insensitive layer comprises a dispersion comprising a solvent having dispersed therein a liquid-crystal forming dye of structural Formula I:D is a light-absorbing chromophore other than a cyanine dye or a barbituric acid or thiobarbitlric acid oxonol dye;each Y contains an ionic or a nonionic solubilizing substituent or a group with a pKa value of less than 4 in water;each X is a nonionic substituent;n is 0 to 10;m is 0-10; and resulting dye forms a lyropic liquid-crystalline phase in solvent.
