Dear Lado,
You should be able to do it simply by calling countourf multiple times
changing the alpha value (or setting it to something like 0.5)
plt.contourf(..., alpha=0.8, ...)
plt.contourf(..., alpha=0.6, ...)
plt.contourf(..., alpha=0.4, ...)
The problem comes when you want to save the figure as eps: it does not
support transparency, so the alpha level is ignored and all colors are
solid.
Cheers,
Francesco
