With that light over such a tall tank, you would probably fall under the low-medium light range. There are quite a few plants you could grow under these conditions, including some very colorful ones like members of the ludwigia family. With the addition of CO2 and a few ferts, you should be able to grow a lush jungle of many different kinds of plants.
Do you have a particular layout or aquascape in mind? Do you want to add driftwood or rocks to your tank? There are certain plants that compliment these items really well, like mosses or riccia.
Depending on which direction you go with the tank, you could have some crypts and dwarf sags or other undemanding plants in the foreground, ferns in the midground, and tall stems like ludwigias or rotalas in the background, or even some tall sword plants. If you want to go higher tech and you feel comfortable dosing fertilizers from time to time, you can experiment with some carpeting plants in the foreground (UG, micro swords, dwarf clover, glosso, to name a few), some cool looking plants in the middle like something from the hygrophila family or alternanthera, and then in the back you could have either tall vals, echinodorus vesuvius, stems, etc.
Either way, I would suggest adding some root tabs to help feed the plants.
Since your tank is tall and it is unlikely that you'll be able to purchase stems that are already two feet tall, I would recommend getting some floaters with long roots like amazon frogbits to keep the top of the tank from looking too bare as the other plants become established.
