Whilst I am not able to positively identify this chap, I am convinced he is an old weaving spider.
A Queenland Museum 2008 publication says there are 60 species of Orb Weaving Spiders in the Greater Brisbane area and most are yet to be identified - so no wonder I have having difficulty.

Unfortunately, the only view I had was the underside (ventral) view. However, I think this is the Cross Orb Weaver so named because of the cross mark on the abdomen.

In case any body was wandering, the last few post were dew drops on the fuzzy floaty thing on top of 1 thistle seed...

I believe this tiny spider is a mature male Hypsosinga sp., but I hope someone can confirm that. Observed at a bioblitz in Corral Bluffs Open Space on the high plains just east of Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA. June 8, 2019.
I just love the orbs of light that these raindrops become on an overcast day. It's all about the light.

This 'amazing circle' or orb was created from a photo I shot of trumpet flowers at the Biltmore Estates gardens in Asheville, North Carolina, USA.
Orb weaver spinning a web. I watch this spider put out a web each evening as the sun goes down and then take it down in the morning.
Arch Rock - Joshua Tree National Park.
I had previously shot this scene in the past, but curiosity got the best of me, to try for the first time adding the orb thru light painting. I was happy to get the Orb, Arch Rock and the Milky Way together as planned, and it was fun doing this!!!!
Thank you for viewing.

THANKS EVERYONE, all faves are much appreciated! Oldest duplicate group-logo comments are deleted.
Even arachnophobes will have to admit: this is an amazing creature! Unlike other spiders, the Golden Orb Weaver uses gold silk to make its web. This golden gleam is especially easy to see in the morning, and is how this spider earned its name. Additionally, this fascinating example of Khao Sok wildlife builds some of the largest and strongest webs in the world! Nevertheless, these gentle giants are unaggressive, and harmless to humans.

Was out for 4 hours tonight, and have a fair few more that I need to download. Would have felt bad if I had not got 1 straight onto Flickr though!

From my garden last night, my best guess is that this is a male (because of the large palps) Neoscona crucifera orb weaver. You typically just see females, which are larger and rounder. They make a new, often quite large, web each night, and then recycle (eat) the web the next morning. (Around our house we humorously call them "head-jumpers," because if you wander out of the house first thing in the morning this time of year, it's easy to walk face-first into last night's web that wasn't there the day before.) From what I've read, the males often don't make webs, and actually cannot once they are sexually mature -- they then wander off to find females, who usually stay in one general area. Maybe that's why today, his web is still in place, unrecycled, and the spider is nowhere to be seen; maybe he molted and is now mature, and on the road looking for love? In any case, they're common but definitely cool-looking spiders.
