Great job. I was hoping for just a hair more detail in the flower itself and I am guessing you were too since there's a halo artifact around the blue head. Looks like either a sharpening thing or possibly a mask of some sort. So you pretty much nailed the shot except for the flower head.

Looks brilliant from 6 inches farther away though, which is a testament to your compo.
(Yes, I quite agree about the focus, I was foolish to shoot at f/2.8.)

That depth of field is just amazing!! Just the tiniest smidge mor, as already mentioned, would work better for me. But, as it stands, this is one of the best examples of a shallow depth of field I have ever seen. This belongs in text books to illustrate the concept.

And someone once said flower pictures are dull.
That someone should see this image and 'eat' those words.
Gorgeous.
