U.S. President Barack Obama waves while standing with other leaders during the Open Government Partnership event at the United Nations September 20 in New York City. The United Nations General Assembly kicks off September 21, with leaders from around the world attending.
I really, really hope that's not the Chinese Premier that Obama cut out of the picture while needlessly drawing attention to himself.
UPDATE: You gotta love the "This looked shopped*" comments. The word you're looking for is not "shopped." The word is "narcissistic."

Too obvious! Should have just gone with the behind the head "Peace sign"!
Maybe he was trying to protect someone's secret identity:
Two senior officials briefed reporters on Monday on the eve of the unveiling of President Barack Obama's Open Government Partnership, which seeks to promote responsible leadership and stewardship of natural resources around the world. But under rules set by the State Department, the officials could not be identified by name.
Reporters questioned whether the conditions of the briefing would meet the standard for the partnership but were told by a third senior anonymous official that the conditions were intended to prevent the president from being pre-empted at his own event.
