Hi, wow! The spider in the foreground may be Nephila clavata (Joro spider) and the one in the background may be Nephila clavipes (golden silk orbweaver). On this website if you go to the upper right MENU (more symbol) to Locations you can see what spiders are most commonly seen in an area. Under each photo is the option of seeing more photos of that species from other locations. Spider coloring can vary and they change form and sometimes color as the go through their life cycles.
