Here are some new images taken with my Canon Digital Rebel camera.  These images are of  the better deepsky objects of the summer Milkyway.  Lens used was a Canon 200mm F/2.8 (about 320mm effective,) 800 ISO and exposures of 30 seconds.   Individual frames were combined and stacked with IRIS to generate these images.
