It's not a secret.
Nikon D300, 18mm (effectively 27mm in full frame), ISO 3200, f stop as wide open as the lens allows - mine was at f3.5, 30 second exposure, cable release, and tripod. The trees were "painted" with a LED flashlight - you have to experiment with how long to "paint" the trees. Can't answer that one, though with the flashlight I was using, it was a quick up/down, covering the trees. The mountain was "painted" by the lights from the cabins and the Tamarack lodge. Since I shoot in RAW, there was also a little post processing.
Thank you for the compliment!
