Backdrop you can either add to a plane which I use if I wish to get the scale right like if I have characters inside house and want the windows overlooking the backyard. i find this my preference because i can move it back and forth to get it looking right. You add the image in the Surface Pane > Diffuse and depending on shape of image you will probably need to tweak the scale sizes to suit. the second option is to add it as background Environment Pane > Backdrop > Background you will see the top option which color adjustment but a little drop arrow click that and hit browse to choose the image. I use the second option as well but it kind of dictates my camera angle a little too much for my liking. it just depends on what you have in mind for your set.
