Ilan, it's not uncommon for the 1 hr labs to increase the saturation and contrast and also sharpen the images so they look 'better' to the average punter. It's one of the reasons I bought a scanner many years ago.

If you take a digital image in you can tell the machine not to apply any processing to the image, it might be worthwhile having a word with them next time you take a film in.
