Docker images aren't stored as one file like you see using docker images.

Docker image layers are stored in /var/lib/docker, there are sub folders of storage drivers. If you run docker info, you should see Storage Driver: aufs, and I'm assuming that your install defaults to aufs.

So your path is going to be /var/lib/docker/aufs/*layerfolders*
