White spider

I shot this white spider in my garden while experimenting with a cheap close up filter on my Canon 50mm f/1.8.
Hand held with pop up flash as I was at F/14
Is this a naturally white spider or is it an albino?
Thanks for any info :D

Thats a goldenrod crab spider. They change color from white to yellow to white depending on their environment. Apparently it takes them 30 days to make the change so that particular flower may be long gone. Nice shot, thanks for posting!
