An easy solution might be to apply log scaling in the colors.

It looks like you are taking several contours of your data and then coloring by the field you are contouring on. So each contour has the same value. If that is the case, you can opening the color editor and turning on the `Interpret Values As Categories` button. That should allow you to select a color for each contour. You can also select from some pre-made color categories, some of which have sequential meaning.
