is it normal for my apple watch to have a sort of automatic brightness?

when I raise my wrist my apple watch (series 8) has a strange change of brightness, it is not immediately bright, but it goes from dim to its full brightness, is it normal or should I have it checked?

This is the ambient light sensor kicking in,this adjusts your screen brightness to match the surrounding area,there is no setting or configuration for this.
