This is an orbweaver, however, not Leucauge venusta. L. venusta is small, with green legs and a silver, black and yellow abdomen. Like this: http://bugguide.net/node/view/2010 Your spider is likely one of the Spotted Orbweavers from Genus Neoscona. Do you have any pictures of the spider's back? http://bugguide.net/node/view/1991
