I think you get a lack of continuity from pic to pic a distraction with the 
black corners. That?s the negative side of it.
Is it part of the photo or is it the mount? Lots of people take their 
transparencies out of the mounts when they print them in the darkroom. 
I used to do a lot of Cibachromes in a rental lab with a lot of other people 
and some of them always did this as a matter of course I used to watch them 
do it.
I?ve also worked in other situations when all slides were transferred to 
glass mounts. 
So, mounts are a storage medium and not the picture itself.
The mount takes a few percentage points out of the picture which you saw in 
the finder if you had a full frame flagship SLR finder so plenty of people 
want want they saw in the finder if they paid extra to get it.

This image by way is looking any color you want as long as its cyan. Needs 
red like gangbusters!

    PESO:
    
    The actual title is Trains and Boats and Clotheslines and it's another 
one
    that would make a good jig saw puzzle.
    
    My question is about the Kodachrome corners.  All of my KC slides have
    rounded black corners from the old KC cardboard mounts.  I usually clone
    those corners out but then I wondered why.  They are there and maybe part
    of the photo.
    
    What do you think?
