Battelmap with cliff try

Hi,
[*]I'v used the Annual 2008 battlemap guide to produce this :

[*]What I wanted to represent is a small torrent with cliffs.
If I might say so I would have like an color option for the various "wall shadow" that would have made the white foam on the river stones. I used instead Photofiltre (a free picture software). On a small resolution it looks sort of satisfying.
Did I miss something ? Is there already an effect suitable ?
[*]By the way, I made that to play with my kids. I was quite surprised with their perfomance at their first RPG. They are 6 and 10 years old.
[*]Thanks for looking and open for advices,

PS. Sorry for the format but I'm struggling with BBcode. How does one implement carriage return ?

Instead of using wall shadow for the foam, how about using a partially transparent polygon with a blur, an edge fade, inner effect, and perhaps a bit of a glow. I haven't tried making foam like this myself, but I do believe with a combination of those effects, you should get something satisfactory.
Map looks very nice btw.
Here is a new version using said white polygon. I think the cliff is better too, eh ?

For the cliff, I used 5 fractal polys from black to light gray with a blur and a texture effect.
The great symbols are from CSUAC.
