If you head out a little earlier, say 5:30 am, the stretch past Alagar Kovil is almost empty. From there you can take the side lane that skirts the main entrance of Pazhamudhircholai; it gives you a quieter angle for the carvings. Try shooting from the outer courtyard when the sun is low on the left, so the light cuts the stone and the crowds stay behind the entrance arch.
