Today is National Kitten Day.....

I just found this out from this bluesky post from the Getty:

Hey all you cool cats and kittens—it's National Kitten Day.

This soft-focus photo was taken by Carl Rau at the turn of the 20th century. He achieved the wide tonal range and neutral palette through platinum printing, a process invented in 1873 by scientist William Willis Jr.
