Violets are small and modest but they too are beautiful . They rejoice us for almost the whole year with cheerful and colored flowers. The yellow violets are in the BG.

Gorgeous complimentary colors Gigi.  The richness in the blues is outstanding.  First rate photo!

Nicely composed with especially nice color.  As Bill said, excellent management of the plane of focus.  Well done!

I like the navy and royal blue central flowers, and that you held a POF that kept the flowers in sharp focus at a minimal (f/5.6) opening. The yellow flower BG is nicely OOF, though not complementary to the blue, but tertiary at any rate. I think the overall tone is darker than I prefer, but that is strictly a personal feeling, not meant as an objective observation.
