The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Visible crew/equipment: When Mrs. MacReady meets the Pevensie children at the train station, the reflector screen is reflected in the lenses of her glasses, as she looks down when she speaks to them. It is also visible when the children first arrive at the house, when Mrs. MacReady says, "There shall be no disturbing of the professor." (00:07:30)

Visible crew/equipment: When Lucy, Peter, and Susan are riding on the ice chunk down the river, when you see a shot of Lucy struggling to maintain her grip on the ice block, immediately after, there is a shot of Peter holding what was supposed to be Lucy. However, it is not Lucy. The person Peter is holding is bigger than Lucy and had blonde-brown hair.

Trivia: Before filming the Narnia scenes, Georgie Henley was never shown the set. To get a genuine reaction of surprise, director Andrew Adamson had Henley brought onto the Narnia set blindfolded. Her reactions to Mr. Tumnus are real, too. Before filming their scenes together, she had never seen James McAvoy in costume.

Question: A friend of mine noticed that despite it being winter in Narnia for a hundred years, no one's breath is visible. Is this a mistake, a director's choice (since it could've been added in post) or an element of Narnia (I am not very familiar with the books)?

Answer: It was never mentioned in the book or the movie that breath wasn't visible, so it is a mistake.
