Some eyepieces are harder to look through than others usually wide field ie 40mm, in your case it sounds like you are getting reflections due to a source of light behind you, it doesn't take much. I have heard of some people putting a cloth over their head to darken the view from stray light.

ps you have a nice piece of kit there for a newbee, you must have some big plans ahead.
