    You could try leaving a bit later than dawn, say around 7:30. The road that passes Alagar Kovil then goes straight to Pazhamudhircholai without detours, and the traffic there is usually lighter until the temple opens fully. For the carvings, shoot from the outer courtyard where the light hits the stone directly this keeps the crowd out of the foreground and lets you focus on the fine details.
