title: Location of docker images downloaded by Docker (1.9.1) on Mac OS X
body: <p>Where are the docker images located once they are downloaded from docker hub in Mac OSX. For example if I run a command like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>docker run hello-world
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>the image is downloaded and the container is run but where is that image located on my system? </p>
  
  <p>Note: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19234831/where-are-docker-images-stored-on-the-host-machine">Where are Docker images stored on the host machine?</a> This question has answers related to linux machine, mainly. The answers for Mac OS X are considering that boot2docker is being used alongside docker installation, which is not the case for me. </p>
