Someone I shot for wanted that look that current NHL photographs have, which is basically the digital look. I achieved it by blasting out the highlights and blocking up the shadows, throwing away much of the tonal range of the original transparency, to make the colours seem very clean and pure, with not too much variation in solid colours. Then I applied a mild median filter to obscure fine detail and finally slightly oversharpened it.
