I came across this spider I took with the trusty old 5DSR/100-400 II in Malaysia. Any experts on what it is?
Looks like some kind of silk spider, I suppose a Nephila maculata. Found this pic on this German page on the web.
When I searched wikipedia I found this article about Nephila pilipes.
I think the yellow spots on the leg joints are pretty prominent.

Looks like a female Giant Golden Orb Weaver to me, but I am no spider expert.
We have their smaller cousin where my sister lives where they call them Banana Spiders, though they are still a decent size and their webs can be very big.

I love this perfection of a fresh new orb web
Thanks, Click, Graham and jprusa.
I would like to put credits to the owner of this orb. I was just the lucky observer.
