Greetings from the Critique Club!
This is a shot I don't get. When I saw where it placed, I was stunned. I am surprised that it beat a number of shots it beat. On second look, I think I know why.
This is a really decent, average photo (5.2ish) but there is one glaring weakness: that overexposed bit of it. That part ruins the whole photo for me, but obviously when people voted, they took into consideration the photo as a whole. I wish I'd been able to do that at the time. Your focus is on, the colors are nice - but that spot is so overly distracting that people aren't going to see what's good about it.
Oh, and did you mean Jewels? I see you're in Germany - still gotta check your spellings or the English speakers will eat your shot up just for that spelling mistake.
Happy shooting and good luck
