Working over a bowl to catch any juice, segment the oranges and grapefruit: cut off the top and bottom of each fruit, stand it upright, and slice away the peel and pith following the curve of the fruit. Hold the fruit over the bowl and cut between the membranes to release each segment. Discard the membranes.
