The dots you put on the swamp edge points look good. There is a high point little hump above your middle dot on that private land... I would definitely look there. Looks like you could learn a little from your aerial too, but it is zoomed to far back.

Thats about it... We look for islands, points or fingers, corners etc... Which are all forms of transition lines as well.
