matplotlib.scatter color argument not accepting numpy array

I have written the following python plotting script using matplotlib:

import pynbody as pyn
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import glob

s = pyn.load('./ballsV2.00001')
sl = s.g[np.where((s.g['z'] < 0.005) & (s.g['z']>-0.005))]

sx = s.s['x'][0]
sy = s.s['y'][0]
sz = s.s['z'][0]
r2 = ((s.g['x']-sx)**2+(s.g['y']-sy)**2+(s.g['z']-sz)**2)
Flux = np.array(1./(4*np.pi*r2)*np.exp(-1*7.00114988051*np.sqrt(r2)))

print(type(np.log10(sl['radFlux'])))
print(type(np.log10(Flux)))

plt.figure(figsize = (15,12))
#plt.scatter(sl['x'],sl['y'],c=np.log10(sl['radFlux']),s=75,edgecolors='none', marker = '.',vmin=-6,vmax=1)
plt.scatter(sl['x'],sl['y'],c=np.log10(Flux),s=75,edgecolors='none', marker = '.',vmin=-8,vmax=4)
plt.xlim([-0.5,0.5])
plt.ylim([-0.5,0.5])
plt.xlabel("x")
plt.ylabel("y")
plt.colorbar(label="log(Code Flux)")
plt.savefig('./ballsV2_0.1.pdf')
plt.savefig('./ballsV2_0.1.png')
plt.show()
plt.close()

When I run the script I get the following error:

foo@bar ~/Data/RadTransfer/Scaling_Tests/ballsV2 $ py 
balls.py 
balls.py:15: RuntimeWarning: divide by zero encountered in log10
    print(type(np.log10(sl['radFlux'])))

Ignore the divide by zero stuff,the issue is the scatter plot function isn't taking my array of values to map colour to. What is strange is that the commented out scatter plot command above it runs fine. The only difference is the array of values I am passing it. I made sure to cast them to the same type (they are both <class 'numpy.ndarray'>). Also, the values themselves are more sane ranging between ~4000 and 1E-7 in the Flux array, it is only the np.log10(sl['radFlux'] that has the divide by zero errors and that one works. Any suggestions?
