Golden Orb Weaver, and yes, it's Doris. Reminds me... I have a roll to
develop
that has one of these on it, found in the swamp.
Beuatiful pic, and spider, BTW.

One things that intrigue me is that our garden spiders seem to only show up
in October and are gone when the rain season starts in Nov. I have no idea
where they are during the rest of the year. Obviously hiding somewhere and
fattening themselves up.
Doris is beautiful. How big is that thing? Is it really an bigassus
texaspideroo? If so, it must be at least 2 ft. long :-)!
The garden spider I took a picture is pretty large, the body (abdomen?) is
about half an inch long.
