If you’re aiming for the best contrast on the carvings, try shooting a bit later than sunrise, around 6:30 am. The early sun casts long shadows that highlight the depth of the cuts, and the light is still soft enough for wide angle shots without harsh highlights. A lightweight tripod helps keep the frame steady while you experiment with different angles.
