Hello,
I am attempting to overlay a filled contour over a custom image.
I have managed to get something basic working, but i have encountered a
problem:
When the contourf plot is set to semi-transparent there are visible lines
joining the bottom of the plot and the filled contour edges. I have attached
an image of the plot.

The code i have used is below; please bear in mind I am not a programmer, so
if the code seems botched, that's because it is.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from pylab import *
try:
import Image
except ImportError, exc:
raise SystemExit("PIL must be installed to run this example")
lena = Image.open('lena.jpg')
dpi = rcParams['figure.dpi']
figsize = lena.size[0]/dpi, lena.size[1]/dpi
fig = plt.figure(figsize=figsize)
#fig.patch.set_alpha(0.5)
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
#ax.patch.set_alpha(0.5)
ax.imshow(lena, origin='lower')
ax.contourf(z2,[10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55,60,65],alpha=0.7)
show()

Can anyone help me with this problem?
Thanks for reading,
Pete.
