Sorry, now I see what you mean. Yes, the cursor was on it (it was the 
only thing in the buffer). Turning off Blinking Cursor stopped image 
flashing.

The whole image was blinking, not just the border. I think that this is 
unfortunately quite awful with at least large images.

Why does it work this way?

Testing a bit more I saw that copying the image gave the surprising 
message "Saved 5469 lines" and pasting it the also surprising message 
"Inserted 1583074 character(s), 5469 line(s)". I believe Emacs knows better.
