Best light to light across tall trees

Bere with me, as not easy to explain. At the bottom of our garden we have 7 fence panels, and behind them all are beautiful conifers that are probably 7m high and I'd like to light them somehow at night. Am thinking 7 x spike/spotlight in the ground pointing upwards under their overhang (one light in centre of each fence panel)

I was also thinking of a spotlight on our side fence that lights across all 7 of them, kind of light a beam spotlight (like the batman light, minus the logo and brightness obviously)

Are there suitable lights for lighting across several large conifers please?

    Is it a worthwhile use of electricity? It would use a lot of power.

    I intend no offence but perhaps you should read about Light Pollution and maybe reconsider your plans.

    Lighting up those conifers may look nice to you but may not be appreciated by your neighbours and certainly won't be appreciated by wildlife.
