What a surprise, Nephila clavipes - not seen since I left Charleston
And Leucauge venusta
This is an experiment - a sequence (11) images taking at different focal planes - then stacked together to give a great depth of field (DOF)
Another stack - note the clear focus on all aspects of the L. venusta
Male L. venusta
Another view - note how the closest leg is out of focus. But below in the focus stack image, all legs are in focus
