Very big improvement overall.
The new background could be more effective, I think. The hue on our left is very intense. I believe you would benefit by cutting that back a little (moving away from the yellow toward the blue on the spectrum. Please note that I'm NOT saying make the background blue, just cut the intensity of the yellow-orange on our left. It's competing very strongly with the subject. As has been said by others, backgrounds should stay back.)
And I think the depth of the piece overall would be enhanced by slightly lowering the value of the background on our right (the subject's lighted side), which will increase the value contrast between the subject and the background and thereby separate them.
Very nice work on the "rebuild".
