Golden Silk Spider (Nephila Clavipes), taken in Costa Rica. The spider isn't poisonous, although the size (the thing is as big as a Jeep) and coloration are sure to give you the shivers!

That spider looks so mean, nice picture!

We have garden spiders here that look like that only they are black w/ yellow.

very realistic. Some of those spiders have venom like an acid.
