I need more space - part 2 of 2 (Patreon)

I like to use longer focal length because they provide something like an abstract elevation image of a building. But to take in all of my subject, especially a full figure, I need plenty of space between me and the model.
And, if I want a proper separation of my subject from the blurred background, I also need plenty of space between the model and whatever is behind her.

The basement of the location in Merate represents an ideal situation.
Yesterday I showed you a photo where Linda was about half way between me and the distant wall, I was using the Nikon 105mm f2.5 AI-s at the widest aperture.
The elements in the background were still recognisable, but everything was nicely out of focus.
The warm light coming from a spotlight on the right was helping even more to separate Linda from the rest of the scene.
In today's picture I moved Linda further back, to have her illuminated by the natural light coming from the door on the left of the corridor.
Possibly it is a less successful composition (I actually made less photos in this scenario), but it is important to understand what happens when you don't leave any space behind your subject: she becomes part of it like in a reportage picture.

There is no right or wrong in photography, so which of the two interpretations do you prefer?

The entire shooting of Linda has been uploaded on my Archives, complete with the backstage videos, so you can have a better idea about how I work.
