Great composition! Great sharpness and cool subject! What's not to like? (I'm biased as I love shooting spiders)
The orb weavers (last two) seem a little over exposed. Adjusting that will deepen the background as well to get rid of the neon green effect (not a bad thing effect, just I find it takes away from the subject).
I tried to ID them on http://bugguide.net but I couldnt find the orb weaver.
EDIT: I think I found it. orb spider cf Neoscona crucifera - Araneus cavaticus - BugGuide.Net
The Wolf Spider looks like a Trochosa
Genus Trochosa - BugGuide.Net Awesome shots!

The composition is good in all three, the light is too hard on the third and there is some saturation in the colors
 
Thanks, I'll bring the exposure down but there was very little vibrance added to these. I never touch saturation, and the vibrance slider is under 25 on them, it just happened to be very vivid I suppose. I will try bringing that slider down as well.
