How are self-governing colonies viewed now that they no longer belong to Britain?

They are viewed as independent nations. Some are part of the so-called British Commonwealth, a platform for economic, political and cultural cooperation, but Britain today is no more than an equal partner in that group of nations. Some of these nations have also retained the British Queen as their Head of State. But she is represented by a Governor-General who is chosen by the country itself from amongst its own citizens. It doesn't give Britain any added influence in these countries' affairs.
