Or better

    location /gallery3/ {
 
        root  /path/to/gallery3;
 
        location /gallery3/(index\.php/)?(.+)$ {
            try_files       $uri    /gallery3/index.php?kohana_uri=$2;
        }
 
        location = /gallery3/index.php {
            fastcgi_pass    backend;
            fastcgi_param   SCRIPT_FILENAME  /path/to/gallery3/index.php;
            include         fastcgi_params;
        }
    }
