And please remember that the wing mounted landing lights are designed to illuminate the runway for landing, i.e. they point down.
Last winter I had an A319 Captain snag the landing lights because they were shining on the ground just in front of the aircraft when parked. When I looked at another A319, and it was the same, I twigged that this is how they are designed.
