A girl would love to get this... alas, the diamond is too bright, and I
don't understand why. :-(

it looks as though it is on fire, glowing, lit intensively from above or all
of the above...

Hey, maybe that is what a diamond looks like to a girl.

Usually 'ignore_photons' is used within a glass (or similar) objects photon statement.
That's what appears to be wrong here.

The diamond looks like a light source itself!

Nice ring.

But the surface seems a little bit uneven.

Is it made of "white" gold ?

The source for the diamond I posted to 
povray.binary.scene-files has several light 
sources strung up inside the diamond shape.

So if that is the code you are using, then just 
use Diamond instead of LitDiamond.

Or just decrease the 0.15 number in the DimLight
declaration to make the lights dimmer.

Diamonds become white in pov for some reason, regardless of photons. The
attached image uses no photons, only difference is max trace: 15 for the
left one and 4 on the right. Any idea why?

    pigment {color rgb <.81,.88,.97> filter .94 }
    interior {
         ior 2.417 
         fade_power 1000 fade_distance 15
    }
    finish { reflection_min .03 reflection_max .5 reflection_falloff 1 }

Any ray that exceeds the max_trace_level is given the background color
which is black by default (but you can change it, of course).

Background is black, diamond becomes white as max trace level increases.
