Are lightning pics considered astronomy?

Not sure if this is the right place to post these, but I wanted to share some shots of the most incredible lightning storm I've ever witnessed.

Probably not, but they are very cool!

Lightning here on earth isn't celestial, so I would think no. But they're cool.

Just looking at the other forums, Nature and Landscapes would seem the best fit.

Thanks. I'm a noob and not familiar with all the forums yet.

Not Astronomy or celestial, but a great series none the less.

Who cares.
Good pictures are threat to eyes, where ever they are posted.
These are fantastic.

They fit the best within astronomy cause there is no weather section on this forum unless it's used as a landscape image .

I was unsure of the landscape subforum too, but I'm reminded that it's called "Nature & Landscapes", so I think lightning without land is appropriate.

Yes, that's why I suggested it. Lightning shots often fit both terms.

There are also a number of lightning threads in that forum, so it seems others would agree.

Cool shots Well captured
