I created this nature picture of a Spiny Backed Orb Weaver Spider (Gasteracantha cancriformis) in my backyard on Halloween Day 2020. This type of spider is common to Florida. It is commonly called smiley face spider because the white part frequently resembles a "smiley face" if you look closely enough.
