Orbweaver for sure, could be A. diadematus...by the way I'm in orlando/tampa and the local tarantula folks here are having a meeting Dec.6th at the fairgrounds.

PS: A better picture of the abdominal pattern would help, both ventral and dorsal if possible

It's very likely to be an Araneus spp. , but which one I am not sure. I'm saying A. diadematus b/c they're very common and can have a wide range in coloration.
