Argiope trifasciata (Daniel  Caron [October 1, 2009])

First day of frost this fall.  Spotted one spider in tall frosty, grass.  These spiders in this location seem to face away from the rising sun.  They rest on west side of web. Wonder if this is common for this spider and, if so, why.  Anyone have thoughts about this?
