This was one of two shots I took on my final imaging night while up in Prince George for work. It is made up of five light painted shots of the tree, I used a headlamp and each shot had a bit of the tree and grass lit up. After getting all of the exposurers of the foreground, I moved the camera to the other side of the tree to get some unobstructed shots of the Milky Way using my star tracker.
