Yes, it's a crucified Jesus carved from radishes at the top of this altar. My favorite details are the papel picado decorations adorning each step of the altar. Oaxaca has got a way with radishes.

Bread of the Dead for Muertos
Everything Oaxaca and Mexico that catches my eye, from stacks of sugar skulls to la lucha wrestling toys, from chupacabras stickers to the outsider art at Popeye's paletas. Art, culture, street stencils, signage, shrines, candy, toys, and packaging all have their shot at the pop spot.
