Pacheco said he snapped the picture while driving to work.
To many, the cloud formation looks like a fiery hand reaching down from the sky, hence the photo's robust title.
A meteorologist with the BBC says perfect lighting is the real force behind the mystical snapshot. Because the cloud was at a low altitude, the light and formation came in contact at the most opportune time.
