Based on the image, this appears to be a Black and Yellow Garden Spider (Argiope aurantia).

Here are some of the features that suggest this identification:

Bold markings: The spider has a distinctive pattern of black and yellow stripes on its abdomen.
Web shape: It is sitting in a large, circular orb web, which is a typical web type for this species.
