Skywatcher ED80 eye piece options

Hi everyone,

LTRFTW.

I currently have a 24mm eyepiece and a 2x Barlow that I use with my Skywatcher ED80 (Black Diamond).

I've been looking at getting another eye piece and was hoping I might ask for your advice or opinions on what brand, focal length, style would be best to go for?

Most of my time is spent drooling in awe at clusters in the milky way, or showing my friends and family Jupiter, Saturn and the Moon.

My main goal with the new eyepiece is trying to get a bit more detail of the planets.

Also, I've attached a photo that I took in late February of the full moon. It's my first attempt at astrophotography and would love your critique / advice on how to improve.

Thanks in advance,
Glen
