In beautiful surroundings and a relaxed atmosphere, the Nikita Chickita provides the kind of contest that aims to encourage and showcase up-and-coming female talent that we know exists, alongside pro and established riders. Every aspect of the contest and event has been geared towards the girls’ needs – after all Nikita shares the same passion for riding and the lifestyle that goes with it. With great riding also comes good times and of course with great people.

The result is a 2010 fund-raising calendar that features sharks, turtles, moray eel, crown nose rays, shrimp and humpback whales accompanied by first-hand insights from each photographer highlighting the problems faced by the marine environment.

Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “This is an extraordinary collection of images from an extraordinary group of individuals. We’re proud to have their support for our pioneering campaigns and grateful for the opportunity to share their profound observations and wisdom.”

In a perfect endorsement of Bite-Back’s work, great white shark expert, Mike Rutzen, said: “Sympathy for sharks is in short supply but it’s time to change our point of view before we lose them forever. These magnificent creatures deserve the same reverence as lions and tigers, yet we’re slaughtering them with blatant disregard for the consequences.
