A Dutch photographer with too much time on his hands created a setup to take photos of insects in flight.
It has lasers, custom made mounts and everything, very complex tech.

Make sure you have a look at the rest of his site, too. His experimental and highspeed photography pages are very impressive, too. How do you exactly time the shot when you want to take a photo of a bursting balloon? Easy, you set up a microphone and use the pop to trigger the shutter release... He's mad but a genius.

That is utterly awesome! And you're right, he is mad.
