In pictures: Norway's solemn tribute to attack victims

A field of floral tributes is building up outside the cathedral of Oslo, as Norwegians come together to pay their respects to the victims of Friday's attacks.

Correspondents have spoken of the profound shock the massacre has provoked in Norway, the deadliest tragedy of the country's post-war era.

Tributes were also laid overlooking the island of Utoeya, where Anders Behring Breivik shot dozens of people in cold blood. They were attending a youth camp of the ruling Labour Party.

King Harald, Queen Sonja, Crown Prince Haakon and Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg stand during a ceremony to sign a protocol of condolence for the victims of Friday's attacks in the Grand Hall of Oslo University.

A minute's silence was observed across the country to remember the victims of the killings, here in Storoya, next to Utoeya island where the killing spree took place.

Meanwhile, Norwegian police are continuing their investigations on Utoeya.

Anders Behring Breivik has made his first appearance in court in a hearing which took place behind closed doors and has pleaded not guilty.

As the country struggles to come to terms with the violence, many say the attack has only served to bring people together.
