Some nice shots that bring back memories. Grain doesn't seem to be a problem in the subjects where there is detail, but mostly in the diffuse background areas, and not objectionable at all, at least in the web format. I think you should be rather pleased to have made some of these shots hand holding 600mm in a boat.

I've had a chance to process pix from one roll I took at Damas Estuary in Costa 
Rica earlier this month. I used an OM-4 with a Sigma 600mm F8 mirror lens and 
Supra 800 film. I was in a boat and had to hand hold. I'm disappointed in these 
shots, because they are so grainy, but I needed all the speed I could get in 
order to hand hold. I gotta say that focusing a 600/8 is difficult, especially 
while we were moving. It has a depth of focus you could measure in inches. My 
favorite of these shots is the Whiteface Monkey.
