Tensorflow - How do I split an image in half?

I want to split an image in to two pieces so that I can process the first piece on GPU #1 and the second piece on GPU #2. Here's the problem, though: I can't seem to split the image in half

with tf.device(my_gpu):

    # Load onto GPU
    filename_queue = tf.train.string_input_producer([image_path], capacity=1)
    reader = tf.WholeFileReader()
    key, value = reader.read(filename_queue)

    # Get image as float32
    image = tf.image.decode_png(value, channels=3)
    image_float32 = tf.image.convert_image_dtype(image, tf.float32)

Now comes the tricky part. How do I split the image in half? Here is pseudo code of what I want to do

x,y,z = image.shape
half = x / 2

a = half - 3
b = half + 3

first_half = image[:b, :, :]
second_half = image[a:, :, :]

batch1 = tf.stack([first_half])
batch2 = tf.stack([second half])

I've tried to get the image shape using image_float32.get_shape().as_list(), which returns [None,None,3]. I've also tried x=tf.shape(image_float32)[0], but that returns

TypeError: int() argument must be a string or a number, not 'Tensor'

I know about tf.split, but I don't know how to split the image in the way I want in my pseudo code. Any ideas?

you can use tf.slice

first_half = tf.slice(image, [0, 0, 0], [a, y, z])
second_half = tf.slice(image, [a, 0, 0], [b, y, z])
