Manhattan Beach, 
He was on my back deck between the posts. Many of the other photos of the Black and Yellow Garden Spider seem to have a lot more black so I thought this would be a good addition to the gallery. Please let me know if you think I have misidentified. Thanks!
I think it’s an Argiope trifasciata
Argiope bruennichi maybe? When I looked up your suggestion, it mentioned this which is found in Ohio. What do you think? Thanks for the help!
Argiope bruennichi doesn’t have black rings in the femurs, for mi it’s A. trifasciata
I agree. 🙂
