Knowing how to take the shot doesn't mean your photos will look professional. It still takes skill to produce a good photo.
True enough, long exposure is no secret. However, when you get a night sky like in picture #2, you have to expose long, and that tend to wash/overexpose the rest (especially the lights). That's why I thought it was HDR initially. I still don't get how he does, but I'm no pro.
