From wikipedia:
Unlike Hubble, which observes in the near ultraviolet, visible, and near infrared (0.1-1.7 μm) spectra, JWST will observe in a lower frequency range, from long-wavelength visible light (red) through mid-infrared (0.6-28.3 μm).
There is a range in the ultraviolet which JWST doesn't cover but hubble does. Those would be very hot objects. Could explain the missing stars.

Yup, that's a possibility. It's also possible that the original Hubble shot, or the Webb one, was "doctored" to look prettier.
