Looks to be a male Neoscona spp. (Orbweaver family) though species identification is tough I'd say it was Crucifera or perhaps Oaxacensis. Might actually be a male Araneus Saevus. Males are always tough to ID unless you get some very good abdomen coloration shots. Cool find, males are usually rarer and not often seen. Try posting on this website, they'll be far more acurate in ID

I was waiting for you to post lol. Thanks for the info.
Lol, no sweat! Had to verify and overlook the species to confirm it. Orbweavers are spooky looking and the females are even larger. Usually they are very nocturnal and rarely seen during the day. Interesting spider though and thanks for posting! Some of the tiny little jumpers are very cool looking if shot with a macro lens.
