Galleria Taal lights the history
The last place we went was Galleria Taal, it was really amazing. I saw different kinds of camera,
there are brownies ( Kodak camera ), Rolleiflex, Nikon, Canon...... and a lot more.
It also had the sense of an old house because the whole museum was built with wood and lumber,
that’s why the whole place was cool.
Time steps to Camera collection 1800 - 2000,

" New idea is good, old house always better. "
My father Stephen
He took a Nikkormat FT in 1977 to take his first picture.
He did a very foolish thing, he sold it.
Our great surprise when we entered Galleria Taal, " I have been using
Nikon for 35 years, I never know about Nikkorex. "
We saw F, F2, F2A, F3, F3T, F3-250, F4, F5, gold FA.....beautiful memory.
The beautiful memory to photographers.
" Wood house has life. " I am sorry that people will not have new wood
houses in the near future. It will take long years for the recovery of forests.
The old is valuable.
The propreitor, reconstructor, collector of Galleria Taal is
Engr. Emmanuel Inumberable, his contribution to history,
tourism and his country must be mentioned.
Taal is an interesting city 1 and a half hour from Manila.
