Spiny Orb Weaver Spider.

Richard Cotton took a photo of this very scary looking spiny orb weaver spider during his travels to Angkor Wat, Cambodia. He’s a brave man, because it that were me, I’d be running the other way!

Thanks for identifying my spider. All I really knew about it was not to tangle with it!
