Orb Weaver... sp?

Description:

This timid spider hid in a curled leaf when I attempted to photograph it. It took some PhotoShop to get the exposure where it is, but the green/yellow cast is from the flash shooting through the leaf. I can't confidently pick out this eye arrangement from the chart on BugGuide.net, but I'll bet that some will id the guy pretty quick. I am confident that this is a male.

Habitat:

Diverse wooded area near a small lake.
