Here is a much higher-quality and less-cropped version of this image. Santiago Borja took this in June 2016 south of Panama en route to South America. He used a Nikon D750.

Here is the source which adds:

> A strong cumulonimbus cell is flashing over the Pacific Ocean south of Panama City as we circle around it onboard a Boeing 767 at 37000FT. This storm has developed over a strong temperature inversion that created the low layer of clouds. Eventually these clouds pierced the inversion and gave way to this unusually powerful storm. Its updrafts being so fast that they’ve actually pierced the tropopause and created the so called Overshooting Tops.
