Here are a couple photos of a hobo-spider an argiope lobata, a horsefly enjoying its meal and some other bugs....
The lobata was HUGE and extremely aggresive.

some of them by me and some of them by a friend of mine. The camera used is a sony dsc-707 (the prev model of 717) 5megapixels. and as you can see it has an EXCELLENT macro function :)

Extremely nice pics! Although I don't believe that's a hobo spider. Looks more like some type of wolf spider.

Could be....
Hobospider was my guess!
If anyone is willing to ID it correctly pls do, I didn't keep the spider though

EDIT: Just noticed that the pics where attacked by a hacker....so no IDing this time
