"Not Qualified" - Score 2

1) Focus/Sharpness - Yes
2) Composition, Yes
3) Star Quality - No, stars blown out, poor color registration
4) Processing Skills - No, black point clipped, noise in the background
5) Exposure/Depth/Detail - No, exposure too short, image suffers from lack of adequate data
6) Technical Bonus (this is a "bonus point" for special technical challenges - mosaics, LRGB, animations, especially difficult objects, etc.) No, LRGB is poorly executed with poor color registration.

This is commonly held to be one of the most beautiful clusters in the sky, with great depth and gorgeous rich blue and gold star colors. Work on the noted problems to attain the true beauty of C14. It will be worth it!
