I don’t know which slider plugin you’re using, but it’s very common that these plugins already have options to handle callbacks. Something like:

$(function() {
      $('#slides').slidesjs({
        width: 940,
        height: 528,
        callback: {
          complete: function(number) {
            console.log('O slide mostrado é o número ' + number);
          }
        }
      });
    });

You can use this callback to send an event to GA every time the transition is completed.

callback: {
          complete: function(number) {
            ga('send', 'event', 'home', 'impressao', 'slider', number);
          }
        }

So you can know which image had the most impressions using the number as an identifier or even by assigning the name of the image to the event label.
