Not sure if you would call this "macro" but I know there is a lot of spider pics on here, and thought I would have a good chance at getting a ID on this. Was taken in my backyard on the east coast of FL. Spider is good size, little larger than a quarter I would say, and the web was huge, probably spanning about 4-6 foot.

Thanks!

Lovely captures- like the dramatic lighting.
Can only state the obvious re ID - an Orbweb spider possibly Araneus species.
